Sweets For The Sweet

Peter Anton really know's how to make your mouth water with his larger than life sculptures, mostly of wonderful baked goods and candies.  I don't know if I could look at these all day and still keep my sweet tooth in check, but they certainly are eye candy ~

* FUN FACT ~  the SOD, or Spiders on Drugs Project was an experiment NASA did to see what the webs of spiders would look like, if spiders were given drugs.  I've stayed up nights wondering this very thing!  Artist  Guillaume Lehoux created bowls based on the scientific findings.

If this isn't a teaching tool, I don't know what is.
