Bonny 80

I’ve modified a lot of portraits, but never with the aim of making the end result resemble someone.

For this project I was asked by a friend to modify a painting for her mother’s 80th birthday. I found a portrait of a woman with a slight resemblance at an estate sale, then went about matching it to a photo.

Here, I use an image of the “before” as a prop easel.

I take bad and discarded art, generally from thrift stores, and ‘improve’ on them. For a complete collection of my art, a term I use very loosely, go to matthewfranck.com/portfolio
