    The reason her work is so good is because it's her life's work. A lot of hard work has gone into learning this art. And of course she is talented. It teaches us that in order to be good at something, it takes a lot of hard work and time. No shortcuts.

    I’ve always had a passion for art and my mom wouldn’t let me go to art school so I went to culinary school and learned how to bake and fell in love with sculpting cakes and you’ve honestly been such an inspiration to me!!! I still have A LOT to learn and not quite at hyper realism just yet but it’s one of my dream goals 🥰

    • @anti-ethniccleansing465
      @anti-ethniccleansing465 Před 2 lety +11

      Ah! Sounds like your mom and my mom could’ve been sisters! I had quite the many arguments with her about my wanting to major in art in college, where she kept trying to discourage me/talk me out of it with the ol’ “art won’t put bread on the table.”
      She had no idea just how many fields of work there are as options with an art major, as all she kept imagining was me trying to shuck oil paintings for a living lol. So I put myself through college and earned a bachelors of science degree in art from an excellent university (that was super hard to get even accepted into), with the concentration being graphic design...
      I got my dream job with great pay and benefits right out of college, working full time in the music industry for an extremely well known global record label, doing web design for their bands/artists (and some photography too). Do you know how flabbergasting it was how my mom would brag to everyone she knew about my new career after I landed the job at the label, when she never supported me going to school for art from the very beginning?
      I’m glad that you were able to find a career that used your talent and didn’t waste it! You should never have let your mother get in the way of you pursuing your dreams though. Why not just put yourself through college? You were an adult and didn’t need her permission, and it’s not like we are entitled to parents paying for college.

    I, personally, love the creativity: your ingenuity has carved out (pun intended - why not?) a new medium for people to express themselves and I’m such a fan of that. I’m a big classical music person and I think the world needs Art as an outlet for Self-Expression, especially for people who may not know how to find the words (like myself) to do so. I don’t know how to wrap this up; but, I’m here for the ride and I’m excited to see the next cake 😁👍🏻

    I am absolutely mesmerised by the creativity here on full display. As soon as I thought I'd fully gotten to grips with using food as art work, you then pull the canvas out of no where with such attention to detail and love in it. I can't get over how you were able to mimic paint with icing so well, and the joy and enthusiasm irradiated from your voice makes it 100 times better.
    There are very few channels on CZcams nowadays which not only pioneer certain concepts but take it to the max with the implementation.
    You have gained my utmost respect with your ability to excel in such a wider array of skills and stay relentlessly passionate about your craft even in the face of mocking and criticism. Keep up the brilliant work, there are so many people who find it amazing 👍.

I learned to make modeling chocolate a couple of years ago and, while I don't possess an iota of your sculpting skills, your texturing techniques have my wheels turning in many new directions!
    My first adventure with modeling chocolate was a giant hamburger cake for my kids' birthday celebration, complete with shortbread French fries and onion rings. Their reactions were priceless, they couldn't get their heads to process eating a sweet that looked like a savory lol. I'm excited to see the rest of your videos, both old and new!

    I really really really love your cakes and how you're making it.😻. I'm so into art and stuff so I really appreciate it. Some seemed actually wierd though but I love them. I wait for your videos and curious about what you'll make next.😍😲.

    I love your cakes and I also have an art background (painting, sculpture, etc..). I use to have my own catering company and I would make all kind of cakes, but I never thought to put my two favorite things together until I saw your cakes. Now you have inspired me to also sculpt cakes. I like to add some of the old Duff Goldman touches to my cakes by giving them light and/or motion. I like to see just how far I can push the limits of cake decorating. I actually made a radio cake that played music. What could be better at a party than the cake playing the party music🤷🏼‍♀️
    So thank you for inspiring me to think outside the box. I can’t wait to see what you come up with next. Take care, Dee😊👍
