Food

If anyone out there likes to garden, this is the time of year for it!  My plants are just getting started and hopefully I will have a good crop of veggies this year.  If you are in a more southern time zone then I, you might already have food ready to pick and enjoy.  We love eating fresh food this time of year, outside in the nice weather.  The last day of May we needed a jacket but today is nice and sunny so maybe some fun outside time is in order.

Playing with our food has started as early as we were allowed to eat solids.  I know...my son loves playing with his food and throwing it all over the place.  But what if we took it to the next level...made art out of our food.  Bakers do it with fancy and elaborate cakes.  What if we re-created artwork using food?  Well, this artist did and took playing with her food to the next level.

"The Scream" by Edvard Munch

"Sunflowers" by Vincent Van Gogh

From the Movie "Up!"

Looks like fun!  So I have another fun project for you.  Find a famous painting you like or even a movie and re-create it in food.  You will have fun playing with your food again I'm sure!  Also do not forget about the other project I gave you for this summer, re-create a famous artwork as a photograph.  Read more about it in my blog post here. I will post mine soon.

To see more food art....you can see them here. 

Have a fun summer and remember...be the best artist you can be!
