Jason Kronenwald’s Gum Blondes.



Jason has a weird choice of media for his artwork: chewing gum on plywood. From the website:

Each Gum Blonde is 100% chewed bubblegum on a plywood backing. No paint or dye is used. The colour is inherent to the gum - the mixing of colour takes place inside the mouth during chewing using an endless variety of flavours made by an endless variety of companies. Kronenwald has a dedicated team of chewers and prefers the texture of Trident. However, he does not chew gum himself unless he must.

    [...] Chances are we can’t do bubble gum art like Jason Kronenwald can, but it doesn’t mean that we can’t try: behold the ChewByNumbers Kits, which according to the website: … allow kids to create vibrant artwork by chewing tasty wads of gum and spreading the chewed gum onto the ChewByNumbers art board. Each kit teaches project planning skills and helps develop fine motor skills, concentration, and creativity. Meanwhile, kids enjoy every step of the artistic process. Art has never tasted this good.
