Santa Clara Pueblo artist Roxanne Swentzell has found a new medium for her award-winning works.
Swentzell is using chocolate to turn her sculptures and masks into edible art. "The only problem is they're so beautiful no one wants to eat them," her husband told The Santa Fe New Mexican.
Swentzell has been churning out the chocolates in her kitchen at home. She's selling them at her gallery at the Poeh Center in Pojoaque Pueblo but they are so popular that she is behind on filling orders.
