The artwork featuring actress Kirsty Paterson, 29, as a sad Oompa Loompa wearing an orange traffic cone, will be launched at the Glasgow Museum of Modern Art next Friday.

A painting of the Scot who became famous despite her appearance in a shambolic Willy Wonka Experience is to feature in two prestigious Scottish art galleries.

A portion of the profits from the sales of the artwork by Glaswegian artist Ashley Rawson, 49, will go to the charity ADHD UK. Rawson, who also works as a part-time graphic design lecturer at the City of Glasgow college, said: “Kirsty has been away in America and we are talking about a proper launch for the painting.
