Many artists find unusual places to display their creations and this one seems to have found quite the canvas on bananas and banana bunches.

YesButNoButYes.com featured a collection of this banana art, that seems to have started off as simple [boredom doodle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tissue-box-collection). One such doodle however, became the ‘Bananastein,’ the most popular of the banana art set. The collection also features a [banana bird](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hakuna-matata-by-27-87) and an abstract portrait on a banana bunch.
