Stephan Brusche is a Danish artist who chose bananas instead of a canvas, turned them into works of art and collected them in the Banana Doodles collection. At first, he only drew on the peel, but not with colors, as he employed the chemical process of oxidation and, so that the desired strokes were drawn, he accelerated it by pressing on the desired places. Well, later he also took advantage of the banana's curved shape and flesh by systematically and precisely removing or cutting out parts of the peel. And real masterpieces were created.
