Big Van Vader w/ Du-Rag & Tony Schiavone
"Big Van Vader w/ Du-Rag & Tony Schiavone" - Acrylic on Canvas w/ Wooden Floating Frame
Alright, it's time ...IT'S TIME, ...IT'S VADER TIME! So I thought I'd finally get around to posting a new recent Chris Things original painting - featuring one of my all-time favourites. This time in a WCW locker room interview setting - accentuated by a delightfully 90s 'Du-Rag' and one of my most much-loved Professional Wrestling broadcasters, Tony Schiavone!
So I actually created this one specifically for the recent Sunshine Coast Werido Art Show. I came across an amazing reference picture a while back of Vader during this brief but memorable early 90s du-rag era and I knew immediately that I needed to turn it into art at some point. And here we are! It really was a blast playing with big Leon's unique body physicality and proportions. I love how chunky this came out - both in paint thickness and of course the extra chunky Vader! Truly a beautiful beast.
ENJOY!!
