Miniaturist Stéphanie Kilgast (PetitPlat) has been on a steady diet of polymer fruits and veggies for 70 days. Can she possibly keep this up for an entire year?
She posts her new food sculptures almost daily on Facebook where you can follow her progress and cheer her on.
“I’m starting to feel a bit tired with this daily challenge,” Stephanie admits. “It is a lot of work to handle and I can’t seem to be able to make them in advance, say make 3-4 veggies in one session. Ah well, I need to get a grip about this, otherwise I’m going to exhaust myself.”
Why miniatures? “Miniatures are usually appreciated because they make you think you can put the world in your pocket,” says Stephanie and the colors are endlessly inspiring. She also ventures into other subjects including a line of City and Galaxy jewelry.

I don’t know what it is about miniature foods, but I just love them! Her’s are excellent. One of these days I want to give it a try.

I love your “small vegetables”! Did you know a Canadian Polymer artist, Audrey Ogilvie, has just published her first novel entitled Small Vegetables? I just finished it and absolutely loved it. I suggested she start making some small vegetable polymer earrings to promote the book. For those interested it can be purchased at Amazon as a hard copy or kindle download. http://www.amazon.ca/Small-Vegetables-Tangled-Roots-Village-ebook/dp/B00TL64ONI/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1426342841&sr=1-1&keywords=small+vegetables
