Fan Art Friday is going to make you hungry today. You’ve been warned.
Most of the art I feature in this weekly round-up is of the two dimensional variety, but I’m open to all kinds of submissions. When Rosa from Gingerbread Sagas reached out to me, I practically hugged my inbox. She creates her fan art with gingerbread. Yes. She recreates scenes from her favorite books, television series, and movies via baking. Case in point, look at this scene from Lord of the Rings with Gandalf facing the Balrog:
Rosa is a self-taught baker (I know), and her one hundred percent edible art is mostly about gingerbread but also features chocolate, marzipan, icing, and candy. I applaud her use of gingerbread year-round, because it’s too delicious to relegate to the holiday months.
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Since Rosa has been making gingerbread art for a couple of years, her portfolio is not small. You can view further examples of her work in the gallery below, including Twin Peaks and Game of Thrones scenes. Visit her website to see her full gingerbread history and follow her on Instagram to keep up with tasty updates.
Which of these creations looks most delectable to you? Tell me in the comments.
Do you create any sort of fan art? If so, I want to see it. Whether you focus on a specific fandom or pull inspiration from multiple stories and mediums, I’d like to highlight what you do. If you’re interested in being featured in a future edition of Fan Art Friday, get in touch with me at [email protected] with examples of your work. If you’re not an artist, feel free to email me with recommendations for Fan Art Friday!
