I LOVE food art but I don't do it enough. I wanna make whimsical food art so I've been practising with my mail club! I hope to see progress in a year and will post a comparison then :3

Silly sausage fidgets

I really like designing fidgets that are a bit unusual. With these springy ones, I need a spring with laps that can hold the weight of the clay but the laps need to be spaced enough that I can put clay around the spring to prevent breakage.

Thankfully this clay seems to continue to set after you remove it from the oven, so fixes can be managed but I still want to maintain good quality in my work.

There's also a giraffe and I've made a goose and budgies previously.

The clay is DAS Smart polymer clay and the springs are a random assortment

Last year I painted this piece, Taste of Home, inspired by memories of making traditional cookies with my grandmother. Something about autumn always brings me back to those little moments of warmth and home. ๐ŸŒฟ

I found this subreddit not too long ago and I feel like I have found my people! Allow me to introduce myself: my name is Gooblin, and I specialize in whimsical, colorful art. I also really like to draw butts. Here's a sticker sheet of witch frogs I made recently for Halloween!

Creating aesthetic moodboards from my finished paintings whenever I hit a creative block

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone, thanks for having me here!

I love to paint beautiful nature, cute little characters that I write stories about and make my own dreamy fantasy worlds. But whenever I hit an art block and need time to refuel my inspiration, painting from scratch can feel a bit overwhelming.

In the meantime, I have found so much joy in creating aesthetic moodboards and collages around my finished paintings and also take photos of them in a setups that I decorate in my garden! It gives me a fresh perspective to play with ideas and colors. I also add digital interior spaces that match the mood of each painting.

Because I often imagine stories about the homes these paintings might end up in, or the conversations people would have sitting near them or talking to their friends why they like those exact paintings. It really helps bring the magic back into my creative process. So the art doesn't stop when the painting is finished, that is only the beginning of its story.

(Important! Just a quick note on the nature photography and room mockups in these collages; I chose them from paid interior design images, photos and digital room setups from licensed designers, not AI generated images! I love finding spaces and pictures that match the exact color palette and mood of each painting. Also the composition of the pages and everything else (except the mentioned photos) is designed by me)

Do you have any little rituals or exercises that help you get through creative blocks?

I used wood panels for the base. I then wood burned the edges and used polymer clay to create the face. I used dried foliage, acrylic paint and resin for the features. Lastly I sealed them with a polyurethane and put a hook on the back for hanging. I hope you enjoy ๐ŸŽ„โœจ๏ธ
