One thought on “‘Holding on to Mama’ by Angela Gaughan – Winner of the Peoples Choice Award 2018”
I had the experience of being able to see the work holding on to Mama’ by Angela Gaughan – Winner of the Peoples Choice Award 2018 up close recently and watch the artist at work …I feel it should be public knowledge that she is a complete fraud ; claiming to paint photorealistic paintings by means of layered washes when she is actually just putting semi transparent washes over a wildlife photograph printed on canvas …when challenged over the obvious pixels showing on her half complete work she claimed there was no photo on the canvass and just a very detailed drawing under layered washes of paint !! I don’t mind people playing with different means of expression but trying to make out it is a real painting is quite frankly offensive to those of us that put real work in to honing our skills. I implore anyone getting the feeling a work is impossibly impressive to look very closely before singing it’s praises.
