I have a little seam ripper - and I use it to remove misplaced stitches. But a woman called Anna Chojnicka uses hers to draw on bananas! In April 2020, quarantined with covid, she was bored. She started doodling on a banana.
And discovered an amazing talent. Look at these examples of her work
She decorates one banana day, photographs it, posts on social media...then eats her artwork!She has raised thousands of pounds for the FareShare food charity with her artworks. Watch this little video...
It is a crazy story, but she is clearly very imaginative. You can see two more BBC videos, here and here .I frequently doodle on a banana [or leave a message] using a ballpoint pen - because it feels lovely to do that [try it] But I have never used my stitch ripper to draw something beautiful.
She is a good artist!
ReplyDeleteShe really is 👍
DeleteSomething new every day! I've never even used a ballpoint on a banana. I wonder if she is (or will become) an artist using more permanent canvases?
ReplyDeleteoh DO try the ballpoint thing, it is such fun!!
DeleteIt is fun! No artistic result, just the word "banana" and a happy face!

DeleteSH is gifted at carving interesting pumpkins. He says it's humbling to have an artistic medium that rots!
ReplyDeleteThe banana are is lovely.
Hugs!
Pumpkins take a lot of effort though!
DeleteMum, we can play with our food!

Yes dear, if you promise to eat it afterwards and put the peel in the compost bin!
DeleteThose bananas are incredible! What a wonderful talent and what a great thing to do with that talent. Thank you for sharing this - you find some awesome things.x
