I think the artist aged her. I don't like it. Thoughts?

| Why would you paint something that looks worse than the original or a photograph? What's the point? |

| I think an actual smile would have taken the focus off of her eyes. The smirk is odd. |

| Ugh. It looks like it belongs on velvet. |

| Looks like something you could buy at a state fair. On black velvet, of course. |

| Oh the artist definitely aged her. That's so weird, and also, I cannot believe that this is on the news in any form. |

| That is one odd portait! Why the odd expression? I thought photorealism went out of style in the 1970s? |

A tweet quoted in the article: "the new Kate portrait. Has turned her into a thrice-divorced senior VP who reads Fifty Shades of Grey and is mean to bus drivers"
Spot on. |

Me neither. I think it's fine. Makes her look dignified. |

| Why did he change her eye color to match her blouse? I don't understand why that was needed. |
