Rice Art II

Coming back on the edible applications and artistic ideas of serving rice, I found some more expressions of the imagination which were brought to life.

I noticed that the images were all created using foods which were also incorporated either in the dish itself or the side dishes. How clever!

Instead of lumping it all together, why not try taking the rice grain by grain?

Yes, it is a painstaking, time consuming and intricate procedure which also requires a lot of patience, but the result is absolutely worth it.

The rice is uncooked and colored with food coloring. It may come in handy to draw a pattern first on a sturdy piece of cardboard or wood as a guideline. That way you will know where to put what color.

If it was me, I would use double adhesive paper, so that the grains of rice will be held in place. This would also make it easier to frame the work of art, once you are done.

Don't expect to make a lot of progress quickly; you really have to be picky with this hobby!
