A painter makes pictures with paint, a sculptor makes statues with clay and a performance artist makes a fool of themselves. But what do you call an artist whose medium is fruit? From the radical to the ridiculous below you will find 12 excellent examples of this flourishing art form.

12. Parrot



Who's a pretty boy then? For the pirate on-the-go here's the perfect combination of companion and snack.

11. Bouquet



A floral arrangement perfect for the health conscious individual. This valentine's day why not treat your loved one to 1 of their 5-a-day.

10. Cartoon Owls



Orange owls make meal times more fun! These citrus cartoon characters can liven up any lunchtime... as long as you're a child or have the mental capacity of one.

9. Koala



An Australian buffet is brightened up by this moreish marsupial. Koala is a delicacy down under. It's just a shame that this one isn't of the meat variety.

8. Dog



Man's best friend, faithfully rendered in man's favourite fruit. The vegetarian version of a sausage dog, this dog will never get taken to the pound, but may be made into manure.

7. Swimmer



This fruit artist has definitely taken 'watermelon' literally. Although a swimmer was the inspiration for this piece, it could have easily of been called alien birthing pool.
