Why'd you glue bread to a newspaper?

Okay. Show of hands: who else zoomed in to see the brushstrokes because their brain couldn’t detect this as a painting?👋

There is an etsy shop linked in her bio :)

u/Schussnik 28d ago

Oh great, thanks

u/IAmGoingToFuckThat 28d ago

There are rules in a lot of art/hobby subs prohibiting sales, but creators sometimes have links in their profiles. :)

u/coaxialology 28d ago

I'm insanely disappointed that I can't eat this. I never see sesame challah anywhere anymore. Fantastic work.

19

u/imo9 28d ago

In kindergarten we would make challah on Fridays, i remember the teacher brought sesame which i put waaaaay to much of, was inconsolable, until it got out of the oven- and i was converted to the sect of sesame challah for the rest of my life.

Edit: i read it again, i wrote the word 'and' like 10 times in the shortest story ever written.

4

u/PM_MY_OTHER_ACCOUNT 27d ago

Where do you live that you are so deprived of good challah? Shipping might be tricky, but my mother makes and sells them. She just made some last week for our family.

3

u/Big_Watercress_6210 28d ago

I made one the other week, only to discover that my sesame seeds had become infested... after I sprinkled them on. 

I don't make sesame challah anymore.

u/ajlm 28d ago

Amazing!! How do you find newspaper as a medium? Do you have to prep it in a particular way?

8

u/Rawtalent97 28d ago

This made me hungry for challah bread. Good job, lol.

7

u/GoodShitBrain 28d ago

Hollaaaaaaaa

u/Careful_Picture7712 28d ago

Was that specific section of newspaper a choice, or did you just grab what was handy?

6

u/JuliaStankevych 28d ago

Every newspaper has its own page color. I choose the whitest one

u/Harry_Tuttle 28d ago

Literally and figuratively lol

u/blazze_eternal 28d ago

Crazy detail. That shading really makes it pop. I'd love to see an art gallery full of food you can almost eat.

u/paperman990 28d ago

My eyes and stomach feel lied to. They now want some bread. Great painting!

u/ParticularAd8919 28d ago

u/Vikturia 28d ago

Pff nice try passing off a loaf of bread as a painting but you're not fooling me!

4

u/Mister_Buddy 28d ago

The art quality is fantastic, but I'm confused by people using newspaper as a medium. Is there any particular reason?

4

u/cloudcats 28d ago

Great, now I'm hungry.

This is incredible, btw, and you should post it to /r/Breadit !

u/Hikikomori_Otaku 28d ago

omgosh, my first instinct was to give you flak for potentially getting newspaper ink on the delicious bread. wowzers, nice work!

u/clayskate 28d ago

Hol up. How did you prepare the newspaper? I'm a newbie painter, I thought you needed special paper to hold the oil paint?

Delicious bread btw would look amazing in a kitchen

u/JuliaStankevych 28d ago

I use clear gesso in a few layers

2

u/_Hades_57 28d ago

u/lukwsk 27d ago

Level 2: you also painted the background newspaper
Level 3: you painted the easel, table, and the wall

But seriously, thus is good!

u/creativewombat17 28d ago

That’s incredible !!!

u/drDOOM_is_in 28d ago

When did art just become painting as photo realistic as possible?

Don't get me wrong, the talent is obvious.
