"Bananas"

This is the second time i've painted bananas. They have so much character in such little space to move around when they are bunched up together. The colors also intrigue me on how soft the yellows and greens are through out the body. The size is 8 x 10 inches and done in oils. You can see the making of this painting on my blog. Thanks for stopping by and viewing!
