She's my Courtney Love of the art world, which I love but don't expect everyone to...

Interesting she seems genuinely to revere the media/pop culture... in light of the criticism she's received for gaining her fame less through her (arguably questionable) talent - and the accusations she's an alleged media victim herself... well, it all seems a little ironic. I think.

I that portrait of peter.

What I like about her work is that it looks very amateur-ish yet it still bears a remarkable resemblence to the subjects.

ps- who is the lily in her paintings?

It's model Lily Cole. Here's her thread.

guessing from the reference in the second painting posted.

true.
except i dont think i can really say i like these so much.
except the pete doherty one. that one is the most attracting to me, although not saying so because of doherty.

...actually looking at her site, i like some of the ones shown there a lot better.
