The Holy Cross of Bacon


As my first part of this art project I made the above pictured "Holy Cross of Bacon".  I think it adequately reflects my opinion of bacon.  It's a 8inX6in block of urban-harvested sycamore finished with danish oil and adorned with bacon.  If anyone knows how to preserve bacon for the ages please do tell, my attempts to coat it in polyurethane were less than successful.

I've also made a series of 24 Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) featuring the Holy Cross of Bacon.  I'll be sending those out to some lucky people soon.

    when i am cooking i usually add bacon because the taste is really delicious. Actually the bacon for the breakfast is really good i enjoyed a lot. Although the ingredients of the meals be simply if you chose the right ones,the taste will be wonderful.

    Thanks for the BACON ART..I recently lost a close friend of 17 years and he truly loved eating BACON! I had him cremated and they put his ashes in a wood urn,your BACON CROSS now is where his picture should be and it really added class to the Oak Urn! Thanks† BluuKitty 1995-2012
