Artist Juan Medina blends fruit with fun illustrations in this awesome series entitled 'Playing with Food.' This creative fruit baring series is equal parts drawing and produce.
One of these cute food-inspired artworks replaces hair with fresh blackberries. Another uses sliced kiwis in place of drawing wheels on a bike. There's one funny illustration of an unpleasantly plump gentleman in which the body has been made using half of a pomegranate. These charming fruity captures blend food and art in a clever way.
The title of the series seems fitting, considering that the food is used to represent inedible objects. This series looks good enough to eat and pairs people and produce in a way that makes you want to smile.
