Miniature Portraits 9 : “The Daredevil”
The other longstanding romance of The Muppet Show was between a long nosed purple thingy… and a beautiful chicken!
Gonzo the Great always had the most creative ideas for stunts! From being shot from a canon to the indoor running of the bulls, Gonzo was up for anything. I can see why Camilla loves him… after all, he’s a bit of daredevil!
Art Process : This was originally a vintage print on wood of famous Italian art. The backing was coming off and hanging ribbon and ring was a bit yucky and needed replacing. I pried out the wood panel (which had been glued in), sanded and primed the surface. After drawing and painting studies, I painted the miniature on this wood surface. Once fully dried I coated it with several layers of matte varnish to protect the artwork. Then I carefully shaved down the edges of the the art needed to be trimmed down to fit it back in the frame. Once glued back in, I added a new ribbon & ring so it can be displayed on the wall. And finally added a new patterned back to seal it all in.
Miniature painting in acrylic on reclaimed wood in 10 x 13 cm vintage gold wood/resin frame. Ready for wall display.
