- Digging for Diamonds : This is Queen Elizabeth II picking her nose ,
with a visual pun of Digging for Diamonds .... As the Royal family has
the 2nd biggest diamond in the world , the Cullinan Diamond ( Star of
Africa ) that was give
n to King Edward
IV during Colonial South Africa. I feel strongly that the diamond should be on South African soil, for South Africans to view and be proud
of as it is part of South African history and heritage. This was not
painted with disrespect towards the Queen but to bring up a subject
through art for the viewer to have there own opinion on such a subject.
This was painted in the UK, during the Diamond Jubilee weekend and
painted infront of thousand of her loyal fans. Be Inspired
