Bananas Fly

This was the fourth painting in this series of banana grid paintings. The colors came from a set of Atelier acrylic paints I was handed at the National Art Education Association National Convention in Minneapolis.

Bananas Flip

This is the second of the banana paintings. With this one I decided to use variations of pink since it is a color that is normally associated with femininity in contrast the masculine banana.

Bananas Fall

This is the first of a group of paintings using a banana shape and a grid. I cut out cardboard banana shape that I traced. As I went, I flipped and rotated it on the page. It started with my fury with a few students and with the impending Iraq War back in 2003. I painted acrylic on watercolor paper and then added florescent oil pastels on top.
