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.
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....

Honestly it seems to just be the artist's style.
Sounds like she's just having a hissy fit.

The artist himself calls it “guerilla humour” so it is on purpose.
And let’s not forget, the higher up ozzies don’t really like satire at all.

Kinda reminds me of that messed up restoration of a painting of Jesus.

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.

You are right! He totally would.
I wanted to at least win something this year, if not the Oscars...

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.

Hahaha thats truly terrible! I can see why she wants taken down. NGA might need to extend their hours for this one.

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.

Gina has never heard of the Streisand effect. Let's hope she never does

Luckily this portrait isn't "AI" generated or everyone would have to agree with her.

Streisand effect for sure, but I can also definitely understand her request. Yikes

This lady must hate those caricature artists on the boardwalk.

Im sure she'll come up with an effective way to erase it from society and the internet.

I don't even know what his issue with this picture is. As a blunder years photo, it's not that bad. 18-year-old me would have even envied that coat.
