Happy Wednesday!
Today's inspiration comes from the unique art of multimedia artist Phil Hansen, whose work as been featured on the Discovery Channel, Dr. Phil, Good Morning America, CNN, and many other media venues. He is a master at creating art from such nontraditional objects as burger grease, worms, and tricycle wheel imprints. In this video, he shows how he uses a pushpin to tattoo a banana—pretty creative!
If you'd like to learn more about Phil, be sure to check out his sites: At Phil in the Whaaat? you can see more of Phil's nontraditional art. To check out his more traditional work, go to Phil in the Circle.
My daily haiku is now up at the Pulitzer Remix site. You can find it here. Many thanks once again to all of you who have been taking the time to read and comment. It really means a lot!
Wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday. ☺

I never would have thought of that in a million years. LOL
Deletemy kids are going to be taking all the bananas in the house....great video post. Thanks. Love your poem....the way rose petal drifts....I actually swayed when I read it.
ReplyDeleteI hope your kids have fun!
DeleteAbout my poem: Thanks so much. ☺
That banana is incredible.
ReplyDeleteIt amazes me that people can be so creative.
DeleteWow. Incredible. I will never look at a banana the same way.
ReplyDeleteMe either. :)
DeleteThat is weird. It reminds me of a Bob and Ray show where they collected strange shaped fruit and vegetables and after 20 years one was showing it and it was, of course rotted.
ReplyDeleteI agree: it is pretty strange—but wow, is he talented!
Deletetattoo fruit...how cool was that?
ReplyDeleteVery cool—and creative!
DeleteStinky, but stunning art!

Haha. Yes!
DeleteThat is so cool! very talented...
ReplyDeleteFreakin' Fantastic!!!!
ReplyDeleteIs the banana eatable afterwards?
I have no idea. I'd hate to mess up the artwork. :)
DeleteAnd I always thought I was a little crazy for drawing on my bananas :)
ReplyDeleteDo you? You need to post pics! I love your artwork. :)
DeleteAwesome and Amazing! Makes me want to go home and tattoo a banana. Today's haiku is lovely!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it!
DeleteAbout my haiku: Thanks so much. ☺
Whoa! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteHe's a pretty interesting artist. :)
DeleteSure is!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be fun to sneak the banana back into the grocery store and then secretly watch the reaction of the shoppers who see it and think it happened naturally?
ReplyDeleteAs a bonus, you could record them and you'd have another awesome video for your blog. :)
Ha! That would be hilarious!
DeleteThat is so cool! Wow. What crazy talent :) (ps- did you notice how I visited at the end of the day? :) Now, I'm off to spend hours looking at his art. *Giggles.)
ReplyDeleteHaha! Good for you for waiting until the end of the day! His sites can definitely suck you in. :)
DeleteThat's crazy! Ever since I learned that you can write or draw on a banana so that it will show up later, I've wanted to go to a store and write "They're watching!" or other such phrases. Just to see what would happen. I also want to text the phones at the apple store with things like "Nice shirt" or "You look cute today", but that's a whole other story.
ReplyDeleteLOL Too funny!
DeleteWow -- you have found the most interesting things to inspire us all.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Wendy. :)
DeleteI'm going to have to have a go at that now :) best use for a banana I've ever seen.
ReplyDeletePost pics if you do!
DeleteArt with a shelf life.
ReplyDeleteStrange but cool.
Heather
Yes, definitely strange. :)
DeleteInteresting, but I dig the temporary art of Andy Goldsworthy more
ReplyDeleteI've seen some of Goldsworthy's work. You're right: he's very good.
