I love miniatures because it gives you a sense of being able to control a large part of the world in a small contained space. Food is especially dear to me since it's universally relatable and there are so many different colors and textures to try to replicate.

I've started to explore the less-palatable side of food by sculpting their stages of decomposition in my "Decay in Miniature" series. When sculpting food in 1:12 scale, where one inch equals 12 inches, I render clay sculptures with acute attention to detail when representing their real-life counterparts. Polymer clay is an ideal medium since it is readily molded into a wide range of food substances! You can see more in my previous post.

    Brilliant! What kind of clay is used for the grapes? It looks translucent.

    My bets are on translucent polymer clay.

    This is not accurate. It should be three completely green bananas, rock hard, then it should immediately turn into a completely black one.

    It's completely accurate...Here in India bananas turn just like this.

    The sweet/fluffy waffles paired with the saltiness and sometimes spicy fried chicken makes your soul just so so happy. *drool*
