Bean art + showbeazness

Meet the Chinese food artist, 崔淑敏, the creator of 崔岩豆画 (bean art).

Her adzuki bean drawings undergo a cleaning and preservation process to rid bacteria and to keep the beans from rotting. In China, her bean art received a patent and won several awards, including one from a handicraft design contest.

I missed her when she was in town for the “Unique Chinese Artifacts and Crafts” fair held in a mall, as part of the Chinese New Year celebrations. But at least I got to enjoy her work through this brochure.
