Artist needed to create BM wedding cake toppers!

Post by webapalooza » Mon Jul 23, 2007 2:39 pm

I'm a 3-time Burner and my fiancee is a 2-timer (um... that didn't come out right :oops:). Anyway, we'd love to have a little Burning Man and Burning Woman to place atop our wedding cake this September. Neither one of us is very artistic, so we didn't even want to attempt to do this ourselves.

Obviously we can't offer to pay you due to the Burning Man "no commerce" philosophy, but we would be willing to send you a couple of our own hand tie-dyed Burning Man bandanas as a way of saying "thank you". We'd also be willing to return them to you afterwards if you'd like them back, or else pass them along to another pair of Burners who'd like them for their wedding cake as well.

They wouldn't need to be too big: maybe 6 inches tall or so. Material is up to you, just so long as it's not so heavy that it sinks into the cake! I was thinking wooden shishkabob skewers or popsicle sticks might work to create a true likeness of the Man (and Woman). Maybe throw a bow tie and vest on Him and a veil and train on Her to give them a wedding "spin"? Hey, you're the artist -- surprise us!

If anyone who reads this is an artist (or knows of an artist) who would be willing to create a little Burning Man and Burning Woman for our wedding cake as described, we'd really appreciate it! You'd have to be able to ship them to us on the east coast so they arrive no later than 9/15. If you're interested, contact me directly at [email protected].

Thanks!
