Red Hong... An Innovative Artist

Red Hong is an artist/architect who paints incredible images, but never with a paintbrush! This month (March 2013) she has created an image each day out of food on the same white plate.  Her attention to detail and innovative choice of material continue to inspire me daily, I am still taken aback by her work as I was with the first video I saw of hers last year. 

 

Check out this portrait of Jay Chou created from coffee cup stains, and view her other portrait work in action on her youtube channel here. From carnation portraits of Angu San Suu Kyi to book 'facebook' portrait of Mark Zuckerberg, her work never ceases to amaze me.   

See her daily food art this month on instagram,  keep up to date with her work on her blog, and be inspired to 'paint' ~ Red reminds us we don't need paint or a brush to do it!

Project Runway Premiere Prep

Project Runway Rice Krispy Treats!

 The premiere of Project Runway is a much anticipated event at my house.  The promise of a new season with a creative competition filled with talented designers always inspires me.  To prep for our viewing party this evening (as Project Runway Premieres tonight on Lifetime at 9/8c) I made PR Rice Krispy Treats and PR Watermelon! Wanted to share these two easy DIYs that can make any party festive.  Hope you are watching Project Runway tonight ~ I'm looking forward to watching the designers "MAKE IT WORK!"


Enjoy,

Project Runway Watermelon!

DIY : Cut your watermelon into large pennies
about an inch thick and then cut out the letters
you need with alphabet cookie cutters or carve
them with a knife.

PR Watermelon

Rice Krispy Treat DIY 

Supplies :
6 cups Rice Krispies, 1 bag Marshmallows, 3 Tbsp Butter

1) Melt butter, then melt marshmallows.
2) Once marshmallows are melted turn off
your burner and mix in the krispies!

3) Mix until combined.
4) Lay on wax paper and start to shape
your letters once they have cooled a bit!

I've tried PR for the premiere,
ART for an AP Art Party and
$ for the last day of Macro Economics!

Hope you enjoy tonight's Premiere at 9/8c on Lifetime!
