This is a piece hanging currently at the church called "The Grove". This was an interesting piece to do, lots of layers and experimenting with different instruments for carving.





I'm a member of the local chapter of IEA and we meet once a month to discuss upcoming shows, get feedback on our work and do projects. This month we were all supposed to do something relating to dessert. I decided to make this piece entirely out of wax (except for the inside of the cupcake, which is a block of wood). It turned out to be really fun to make and has me thinking of other ways I could use this concept. The plate is wax as well.
