Pineapple Framed Art

Looking for a welcome sign that includes a pineapple? David Glachutt and Kim Lewis have you covered with their framed pineapples poster art. One may wonder why someone would include the words Welcome on a painting of a pineapple. Simply enough, this fruit is known for its tropical flavoring and consumed in warmer temperatures. Most people associate these two ideas with relaxation and contentment. Glachutt and Lewis have chosen to combine this tropical fruit with the idea of welcoming guests into a home due to the feeling one gets when eating a pineapple.

The most common way a pineapple is depicted is by itself or perched on a ledge. Norman Wyatt Jr., Barbara Mock, and Victoria Hassy have chosen to paint the pineapple in this light. These artists are careful with their details of the pineapple because it is the sole item in the painting. Wyatt’s painting shows the unique outside of the pineapple by incorporating a more basic outline of the structure. He paints in diamond-shaped figures, rather than painting each spike individually. Mock, on the other hand, does paint the exterior to the upmost detail, making it seem as if the viewer could feel the spikes through the painting. Finally, Hassy has surrounded the pineapple she painted by tying in green leaves that look similar to the top of the fruit, as if it were still attached to its roots. All of these artists have demonstrated a unique and detailed understanding of the one of a kind fruit.
