This banana painting has a bit more modern feel than many others in the series. I believe that it is because of the color combination. In the fruit and vegetable series, I have normally been using the complement of the object as the background. In this painting, I used purple, the complement of yellow, in the shadows instead, and used a more grayed green in the background. My son says it has a Warhol feel.
