She’s not mincing her words.
A special portrait of Graham Norton was unveiled at the National Gallery of Ireland recently. Painted by Gareth Reid, the portrait was first introduced in March of this year.

At the unveiling, Graham brought his mother along for the first look.
In typical Irish Mammy fashion, she was quick to give her honest opinion of the painting saying, it “didn’t flatter him”.
The funny reaction was caught in a new documentary, Portrait of a Gallery, which was filmed in the National Gallery over the course of three years.
