Avocado Art Exists and It’s Pretty Amazing

By llevine June 12th, 2017

We all know avocados are having a moment right now. Everyone is more than willing to pay extra for guac, plus people can’t get enough avocado toast for breakfast. Now, avocado art has become a thing, and it’s actually really cool. In fact, there’s an entire art show dedicated to the genre. Here is some of Australian artist Danielle Barresi’s work that’s featured in the display:

Sure, you think your breakfast looks Instagram-worthy, but does it look like this?
