Framed Banana Art

Quite obviously bananas are often paired with other fruits of similar origins to create framed banana tropical fruit artwork, such as coconut, papaya, mango and avocadoes. This includes pieces like “Lucious Tropical Fruit II” by Kris Taylor and “Tropical Fruit I” by Janet Kruskamp. Conversely, some artists have paired the banana with less tropical varieties such as apples, lemons and grapes. These pieces include “Bowl of Fruit” by Dale Payson and “Manzanas” by Patricia Pinto.

What we don’t often see in most food-based creations is the fruit still on the plant. However, in this case of funny shaped yellow fruit, this seems to be a popular way to capture it, in framed banana tree art. Pieces like “Tropica III” by Kevin McPherrin, “Banana Tropicana” by Barbara Shipman and “Cortex Gold I” by W. Green-Aldridge all feature the fruit in abundant bunches still on their great stalks.
