  1. Yes. I think that Camilla’s portrait says ‘ grey, dull and rather lifeless’. Rather insulting.

  2. This brilliant video says everything I’ve ever thought about what is, good Art ? I’m surprised that someone whose artwork inspired wallpaper for Soho House establishments in London, Berlin and LA was thought likely to produce a suitable portrait of King Charles. The artist is also a co founder of the Soho House art collection. I don’t think the portrait works.

  3.  @Sotto_  I was never a fan of Camilla’s, partly due to her love of foxhunting but to deny that she’s a rock for the King, has a great sense of humour, looks great, has warmth, has stepped up admirably to her role, would be daft. The portrait of her as being a grey figure looking bland, is ridiculous. 🙂

  4.  @Sotto_  It seems to be the opposite of her personality. We know she’s not a loud extravert type or an attention seeker but as you said, the lack of warmth of colour doesn’t depict her well at all.

  5. So what makes this artwork excellent ? What do you, see ? Everyone, is entitled to an opinion, including Jesús.

  6. Yes. He uses digital downloading. So - get a photo, manipulate it on computer, print it out, slosh red all over it.

  7.  @StAlphonsusHasAPosse  Absolutely not. Everyone, is entitled to their opinion. Asking someone’s opinion isn’t intimidating. It’s the opposite, of trying to shut down conversation. People don’t have to give their opinion of course. You said that Jesús entirely missed the point of the artwork and so I wondered what you think it might be. Have a good day, though.

  9. The artist uses digital downloading, prints it then paints on it.

  10. Digital downloading and printing is used. Then it’s painted on. So you’re not far from the truth.

  11. The King’s face - digital downloading of a photo, then painted over. It’s the technique the artist uses. Then throw red paint at it all. 😁
