Inspired by the iconic Garfield comic strips of the 1980s, this mixed media artwork is created on a deep-edge wooden panel. The background features a collage of vintage black-and-white comic strips, providing a nostalgic foundation for the composition.
The title, Mama Leoni's, references the fictional Italian restaurant where Garfield was born in the original comics, celebrating the character's enduring connection to food and humour. The central imagery and hand-painted lettering are rendered in oils using a warm palette of reds, oranges. A final layer of clear resin creates a high-gloss finish, enhancing the richness of the colours while giving the surface a sleek, contemporary appearance.
