Artists spend hours perfecting their work, so imagine the agony of creating your artwork blind � having to�roll it up and cut it into slices before seeing the finished product. That�s what Tokyo chef Tama-chan (also known as illustrator Takayo Chioyta) does, fashioning rice, fish and vegetables�into stunning images framed in nori. �I never know what the inside looks like so I�m never sure if it will come out the way I imagined, and I can�t make edits when I�m done," Chioyata told the Daily Mail.She teaches sushi art workshops in Tokyo and always�makes this�promise to her students: �When you see that roll of rice, the thrill and excitement of not knowing what the picture will look like until you cut it is unbearable.�
