The Bronze Fonz is an iconic landmark, regarded by some as the eighth wonder of the world… Well, maybe you only think that if you’re from Milwaukee or you’re Henry Winkler.
Nevertheless, people love to take photos with it, and some even paint it. But you’ve probably never seen a painting of it the way Nate Rose does.
It’s a teeny-tiny Bronze Fonz, painted by Nate Rose, a Wisconsin artist who has recently gained popularity for his ultra-small paintings created inside Altoids containers.
James Groh“People really like just the whole package because it’s got the palette in the tin. They can kind of see how it’s made. Usually, if you buy a big painting, you’re not going to get the palette of dried paint with it. So I think that just seeing the process, people respond well to that,” he added.
Rose paints big landmarks on tiny canvases and travels across Wisconsin, visiting places like Lambeau Field and the Milwaukee Art Museum in search of inspiration.
