Flog It Blog It, More Fart Art!

Molly The Wally Pays Tribute To Kate Middleton!


Kate Middletons' first portrait gets a internet makeover!

We dedicate todays' post to Max The Quilt Cat who is hosting 30 cat portraits in 30 days.As you know from our Turnip Prize Art Award  (here) we call bad art Fart Art. So today we’d thought we’d take a look at Kate (Middleton) Windsors’ latest portrait which has not been received well here in the UK. It's received withering criticism and has been branded as rotten, ghastly and ordinary. Now some aspiring artists with some help from Photoshop have tried to improve Kates’ first official portrait. 

Kate has been given a makeover with the handiwork of the Spanish grandmother who decided to restore a 19th century fresco of Jesus rendering it valueless.


Mr.Bean gets in on the act sporting a lovely shade of eye shadow!


The Duchess has been given the Fatbooth app treatment, complete more chins than a Chinese telephone directory.  


Be afraid, be very afraid! The Ghostbuster villain Vigo version!


Oh and one straight from The Royal Academy Of Art! Priceless!


Someone is a real ‘Joker’! Yes we know you are green with envy.


One for the ‘Twilight’ fans! Kate's addition to the vampire story would be entertaining!


Nevermind Kate we love you really! At least it hasn’t been voted the worst portrait ever unlike dear Majs’ one. Good Save The Queen. From bad painters anyway!



Our friends over at Max The Quilt Cat have told us about Sheila Wedegis who is a great painter of dogs. She is doing 30 Paintings of 30 Dog Noses in January. If you’d like to be included just email your nose photos to sophieATpalm-spiritDOTcom. Her web site is Here Let us have some fun. I have sent mine off for my nose portrait. It is going to be well better than Kates' was.

    We think those street artists could have come up with a much better portrait of Kate. We wonder if they have "accidentally lost" the painting by now?

    The first is definitely the best, Mollie, you look absolutely beautiful and could do some fabulous stand ins for Kate with a couple of hair extensions if she is busy. The joker pic is pretty good too - I do like a big smile on a photo. Betty

    Not very flattering at all we think, we love the Mr Bean and Joker one though!

    I wonder what she thinks about the painting, does she care as much as we all do? We like the Joker the best. Have a great day!

    Oh so funny today Molly...The original is rather strange...She looks so old and she has a black eye...hmmm, maybe the royals had to economize and found the artist on Craig's list BOL!

    GOOD GOLLY MIZ MOLLY, you got a new "do" it seems in that first photo? You look RAVISSANTE!

    I think the Duchess is just gorgeous but the oil painting does not show her true beauty. I don't know, just my opinion!

    I'd hate to be the artist commissioned to paint a Royal. You just know the public will have a lot to say! And even worse when the mock-ups are more fun than the original!

    Can't believe how old and drab that painting makes Kate look. Such a shame.

    Molly..... A friend of mine, Sheila Wedegis is a great painter of dogs. She is doing 30 Paintings of 30 Dog Noses in January. I wanted to email you, but couldn't find your address ... Anyway, she saw your nose in that first picture at the top of the post today and would like permission to paint your nose.

    You can let me know by emailing me at maxthequiltcat AT gmail DOT com.

    Thanks..... hugs, Max.

    We were just reading an article in which the artist was defending his work. His main explanation was the portrait didn't photograph well. Somehow we don't think it would look much better in person. We like the Joker version Molly.

  46. ShellePenn28 January 2013 at 19:42

    Uh, we have to say the way they made her mouth lines makes her look REALLLLLLYYYYY old. But we think if she was to use the Joker one that she would be just fine.

    With a mom as prettyful as her, and the pretty genes in William (but not really present in his face much...) they should have nice looking babies.
