I am a maker of polymer clay art and prints. I'm working with taking my time with a piece Please see my artist's statement for more information about me and my work. You can reach me through my Etsy shop or at eli@newgreyhair.com Biography FAQ gallery Technique portfolio ask me anything rss archive Here is a full-scale (~7") polymer clay in a ceramic bowl). This meal includes spicy ground pork, miso, an unctuous half an egg, braised baby bok choy, nori, scallions, and lots of handmade noodles disappearing into a rich broth. I work with colored clay and never paint my work– it takes lots of planning and blending to reach the true-to-life colors I’m seeking. By using different mixes of gloss, matte, and satin polyeurathane, the broth becomes liquid while the egg has only a light shine on the white and glossy, fresh orange yolk. Because the nori makes this piece especially fragile, it will be available at Gateway Arts, 62 Harvard St, Brookline, MA. Please contact me at eli@newgreyhair.com if you are interested in purchasing directly from me in Roxbury. 9 months ago A breakfast of cinnamon-swirl French toast with maple syrup is rounded out by fruit salad with handmade blueberries, bananas, cantaloupe, and watermelon. All food is glued down, but the plates are not. For a sense of scale, the plates are about .8", around the size of a postage stamp and all food is handmade by yours truly! (The table and ceramic plates are mass-produced.) Available only at Gateway Arts , Brookline, MA!

Packed with dirt from my front yard, there’s an element of cheerful realism for even the most poorly-lit office cubical. Head to Etsy to stock up on gifts for yourselves and office dwellers. You can also request a restock if I’m out! 1 year ago There’s a sweet story behind these briny half-sour dill pickles. When I listed them on Etsy, I referenced a joke that is also true: the hormone in Spiro makes you crave salt/pickles so I tagged it “trans women.” I was showing off my art to a friend’s of mine and mentioned this and she, a trans woman, got emotional about it and just connected with it. It’s very nice when a quirky item like a miniature plate of pickles finds its perfect owner! One of my family’s special treats was a trip to “The Spa” (with a Boston “a”), where I’d always get a BLT and chocolate frappe. It came with a big half sour pickle, which I always took a bite of and then put on my sister’s plate. But I do have fond memoiries of The Spa, andthose big pickles. 1 year ago 5 notes # miniature food sculptures # miniature food # miniatures # dollhouse miniatures # pickles # trans women # spiro # spironolactone # brine # food art # artisan pickles # pickle # ...
