{"product_id":"banana-study-pen-and-ink-print-betsy-crum","title":"Minimalist Wall Art | Banana Study | Betsy Crum","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne banana, half peeled, drawn in pen and ink. That's the whole picture, and that's the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the drawing everything else came from. Before there was a nine-panel grid in nine colorways, there was a single banana worked out in line — the black ink doing all the labor, the speckles on the skin, the three loose peels falling away, one of them already going brown at the tip. Set against plain white with a soft pink halo holding it in place. A study is usually the thing an artist makes on the way to the real piece, and every so often the study turns out to be the better object. Quieter than the grid. Easier to live with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt does well in a kitchen, above a coffee setup, or in a narrow bit of wall that can't hold anything busier. If you'd rather have the loud version, that's \u003ca href=\"\/products\/banana-pop-art-print\"\u003eBanana Pop\u003c\/a\u003e — same drawing, nine times, in color. Both hang together well if you have the wall for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the same banana as the Banana Pop print?\u003c\/strong\u003e Same drawing, yes. Banana Pop takes this line work and repeats it across a three-by-three grid in nine colorways. This is the single, in its original state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size should I get?\u003c\/strong\u003e 8x8 matted to 12x12 is the natural one for a piece this quiet — it fits a standard 12x12 frame and works on a shelf or in a gallery grid. 16x16 gives the line room to breathe. 24x24 turns a small drawing into a graphic statement, which is a different piece entirely, and a good one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it come framed?\u003c\/strong\u003e No — prints ship unframed, and the 8x8 includes its mat. That keeps shipping sane and lets you match your own trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it really pen and ink?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — drawn by hand, then printed. The color is flat and deliberate; the line is not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho made it?\u003c\/strong\u003e Betsy Crum, working in Texas.
