Banana Peel : charcoal drawing : art from trash

Name that Sketch : Banana Skin Boy was this fun to draw! The elegantly simple twisting lines; the contrasting textures of the slick skin and the rough inside and that weird fuzzy stalk. And all against the clock - banana skins don't last too long, especially under a hot studio lamp. Such a good afternoon, and such a delicious smell of warm banana.


Description : A discarded old banana peel spirals and takes on a sculptural form, this fleeting moment captured in an ephemeral charcoal drawing

This charcoal still life drawing is part of the “Carbon Footprints” series
