You might find more pictures of fruit and vegetables in brochures and magazines around your house but just remember to ask an adult before you cut them out.
Option 3: You could even use real fruit and vegetables to create a piece of 3D art!
Watch this video to see how you can make a 3D portrait inspired by Giuseppe Arcimboldo.
If you are making a 3D fruit and vegetable face just remember to wash your hands before touching the food. We would also recommend not cutting open the fruit and vegetables when making your picture, unless you have checked with an adult. Try to use the fruit and vegetables as they are without cutting them open.
