Amongst the things that make illustrator Camille Shu tick are plants and the things they do (or make). “I’m in complete awe of the things that grow around us,” she gushed in an interview with Ballpitmag. “Fruit, flowers, trees, all of it. Something simple like opening a blood orange from the store is a religious experience for me and makes me want to immediately get painting.”

Being a florist, as well as working part-time on a farm, means that Shu knows what she’s talking about. Her artwork is a way of combining her love for nature (particularly flowers and fruit) with her love of illustrating. These illustrations can be seen in murals, commercial, and editorial work.

Describing her aesthetic as “colorful and funky,” Shu likes to paint realistic scenes, to which she enjoys adding abstract shapes and colors. Using mainly Gouache, she hopes to bring more color into people’s lives through her art, as well as help people appreciate the world around us.

Her artwork – bright, joyous, and appetizing – is shared on her Instagram page. Take a look why don’t ya?

Devyn Ormsby’s fruit sculptures look good enough to eat. Paying homage to the blown glass fruit makers and collectors from the 1960’s, Ormsby makes the kind of decorative pieces you might remember from your early childhood, but with a trendy, sophisticated twist.

In an interview with MOLD, Ormsby explained that fake fruit was “usually made from various materials [like] plastic, Lucite, glass or wood” and was typically “light, simplistic and exaggerated in form.” Her collection, however, takes the traditional form but adds to it the weight of crystal glass, colored in pink, blue, yellow, and lime.

Amongst her glass fruit, you can find a banana, pear, mandarin, and lemon. The process begins “by making a silicone mold of the original object, from which [she] can make wax replicas. The next step is to fettle (trim and clean) the wax, filling holes and removing any seams… Once that is done, [she] begins building a contour mold around the wax. This is made up of many layers of a plastic/silica mix built around the shape of the fruit.”

Since graduating from Elam School of Fine Arts in 2015, Ormsby has worked in a Glass Studio based in Auckland, New Zealand. Her latest glass fruit series, named “Devon Made”, had already caught the world’s attention and rightfully so.

Don’t worry, this is not a magical fruit from outer space! Cucamelons are also known as “Mexican sour gherkin” or “little watermelons”. The odd-looking fruit reminds very much of watermelon on the outside and looks like a cucumber on the inside.

If this is your first time seeing a cucamelon, know that they are very beneficial to your health. The green fruits are the size of grapes and taste somewhere between a cucumber and a lemon or lime.

Some even refer to cucamelons as superfruits. The fact that they are packed with vitamins and minerals is just a part of the reasons for it. On another note, they are also very low in calories, which means you won’t be gaining any weight. And let’s not forget the very useful antioxidants. Go through the posts below to see what we’re talking about.

Product waste is a real-world problem we all are guilty of creating. To fight the good battle of ugly fruit and vegetables, this Insta account shares the most interesting pictures ever. Founded by Jordan Figueiredo, a waste specialist, this profile is much more than just shots of crazy-looking veggies and fruits.

“Ugly produce isn’t even really ugly, most of it is beautiful, just a little bit bigger or smaller than the “norm” and sometimes misshapen but very rarely hideous or ugly. What IS ugly is the way that this different produce is being treated all around the world – wasted while so many are food insecure, cannot afford and/or do not eat enough healthy produce. We are changing that here. Join us!”- says their official website.

If you want to join the cause, you can go through these fun images and even visit the ugly fruit and vegetables site to get more information.
