    Honestly it seems to just be the artist’s style.

    Sounds like she’s just having a hissy fit.

      This reminds me of that intentionally bad Simpson’s art page that went viral on Facebook several years ago (probably a lot longer than it feels like).

    And I demand her portrait to be replaced by a funny portrait of a way cooler Aussie. Like esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie. Or Bluey.

    It’s a win-win.

      I feel like you are a little biased here, Esteemed academy award nominated character actress Margot Robbie.

      Bandit would be a much better choice.

      As much as I would love if they did exactly that, I much prefer the public humiliation that Gina Rinehart is experiencing.

      All this faffing about trying to get it removed is only drawing more eyeballs to the piece, and I love that shit with my whole heart.

    Luckily, in the article, the caption underneath the pictures told me which one was actually a photo of Gina, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to tell…

    How does she think this works? Fucking billionaires think they own the world.

    Edit: let’s get a portrait of Lonnie in there.

    I would like to see more headlines name the artist, Vincent Namatjira.

    Maybe: Woman demands NGA remove her portrait by award winning artist Vincent Namatjira.

      beat me to it! I demand she go fuck herself.

      Oh look. Nothing happened. Guess making demands is just completely fucking redundant hey.

      Well, just take it as advice Gina.

    She can buy the art off the artist or the NGA if she really wants it gone.

    I’d argue there is no better way to let the world know what kind of person you are if you’re complaining about this though rather than laughing it off

    The painting is very accurate to what she looked like before her plastic surgeon got to work.
