My piece for the Sugar Skull Bakers 2015 Collab!

It is titled “Under my Feet”
Completely hand sculpted out of fondant,modeling chocolate and wafer paper. 3-D sugar skull adorns the front of this piece out of modeling chocolate then water colored and gold accents. The sides are dripping in teal,purple,and pink water color adorned with framed water colored skulls. The floor is modeling chocolate detailed and textured to mimic a weathered floor. Hand painted in warm browns and gold accents. The rug is extremely detailed then water colored and topped with a hand sculpted/painted cat. The cat is our cat Gizmo who we mis so very much each day. The gold vases are fondant with water colored wafer paper flowers.
The wall/mantel is textured rock painted in more warm browns. Hanging on the wall is 4 frames each with a different water colored skull. The frames are done in an antique style using food colors and dusts. Sitting on the mantel is 2 plates full of fondant conchas. Two candles frame it all, each painted with fine detail brushes. Hanging on the mantel is traditional Papel Picado out of wafer paper and water colored.
At just 1″ × 1″ they are extremely detailed.
This piece is dedicated to the amazing people in my life who may not be here but are “under my feet” dancing bc they are no longer in any pain. They are celebrating as I am today the life and love they have shown me.
