Default Any artists in the crowd?

I do not have the gene to create art, but I do apppreciate art. I
especially enjoy when people use art to break out of the mold. Recent
years have seen people using skin and nails and hair as a canvas for
art. Long overdue and the next coming is doors-front door, garage door,
cupboard doors, car doors...There must be millions of ultra boring front
doors and garage doors in America calling out for artistic expression.
Those decals they are now selling for your walls have great potential
for other applications. I personally decorated my laptop with some
really cool 3 dimensional art stickers-very elegant ones in a black
paisley/scrolls style. (Hmmm they are not paper stickers so I wonder if
they would remain stuck-on in the bathtub???)

So to tie this into food someone in another group posted a recipe that
called for decorating the top of a cheesecake with green and red pepper
jelly. I immediately thought of what I could do with a toothpick to
swirl them together in a pattern, which led to thoughts of painting with
frosting. I have seen art on eggshells done with food dyes but I have
never seen art in frosting (decorative frosting yes, art to the level of
a painting w/frosting no.) With jelly your color palette is limited but
with frosting every color is possible.

What was your most artistic food masterpiece?
