Three Bananas Oil Painting Food Art Still Life Fruit

Oil on Raymar panel, 8" x 10".

Sometimes it's interesting to paint a subject again with a different technique or a different medium.  I had painted this group of bananas a few years ago in watercolor and this time they were painted in oil.  It's a lively combination of colors and shapes in both mediums I think!
