Harue Fujikawa’s polymer vegetables are corny. And since it’s Friday and tomorrow we shop at our farmers market, his laughing bi-color corn looks just right.
Harue has pages of lively vegetables, dolls and Japanese characters.The translator isn’t much help but his site is a visual riot.
And while we’re on the subject of riotous, check out les p’titsmobiles, strange polymer sea creatures made by a French girl in Denmark. I found her on the readers’ link page (put yours there).
If you have any phobias about vegetables or sea urchins, you may want to sit this one out. The rest of you have a riotous weekend.

OMG this is some seriously silly stuff. I loved looking at his gallery. I can’t imagine the time and patience for this.

Oh, that’s brilliant! I never thought about making veggies from polymer clay :D. I think the peaches and broccoli are my favourite 🙂

Oh I wish the avocado link worked – it goes to a carrot that’s not nearly as cute! But those vegies all have a distinct personality! He is a seriously talented guy….

Hi, just wanted to let you know that Harue is actually a woman who lives in Japan. A mother of two, a professional chef and baker as well as being an incredibly talented artist! Where she finds the time I have no idea. She’s one of my best friends and I’m proud to say I introduced her to polymer clay back in the 90’s. Technically the pieces you linked to are actually an air dry clay that is available only in Japan. It comes in many colours and can be blended just like polymer clay. The main difference is the working time is limited unless you can keep it wet. Like polymer clay all the colours come from blending, she doesn’t use any paint.
