Best quotes from the interview:
“I’m not picking on the monarchy.”
“I’m not giving her the finger, she’s picking her own nose!”
” But does she fart?”
The item was light hearted and evoked laughter in the studio, thankfully!

I’ll be on the radio tomorrow morning at the nonsensical time of 7.20am! BBC Radio Sussex, talking about this:
Queenie ‘Nose’ She Picked a Diamond Year!
Commemorative edition product range created for The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee 2012.
This irreverent image of Her Majesty is a painting by British artist Jacqueline Hammond. Created in 2007 titled ‘The Queen in a Moment of Privacy’
Jacqueline has released some alternative memorabilia to celebrate The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee latest hype in the UK and the large proportion of people who are ambivalent about the monarchy, or simply don’t like pomp and plastic tat, may wonder what the fuss is about. Some of the Diamond Jubilee memorabilia takes itself far too seriously, such as those plaster Queens, commemorative plates and ceramic corgis. Other items descend into utter tack, such as Union Jack dresses, tutus, wigs and plastic hats that will no doubt be appearing in Benidorm this summer.
These collector’s items depict an iconic, postage stamp type portrait of Her Majesty enjoying a private moment; in which she is caught in the ‘disgusting but we all do it’ act of picking her nose. The original work entitled ‘The Queen in a Moment of Privacy’ was an entry in the ‘Seeking Picasso’ competition, held in Brighton during 2007, in which Jacqueline was a finalist. She also caricatured the Royal Family on other occasions: for example, in 2011, her ‘Pebble Heads Royal Wedding’ painting used pebbles carefully selected from Brighton Beach as the character’s heads.
So, no need to buy an expensive porcelain plate that you’ll only use once or twice or a plastic union jack this summer, why not shirk the trend say “hurrumph” to the royal family and choose one of my alternative ideas to commemorate?
Choose from bags, mugs and prints all set to adorn the shoulders, coffee tables and walls of UK citizens who don’t want to stand in the street cheering and waving flags.
All items are designed in England and will be joining a range of products, sold under Jacqueline’s Smart Deco brand, that are all from British artists and designers.
The ‘Queenie Nose She’s Picked a Diamond Year 2012’ mug and bag can be purchased online at http://www.smartdeco-style.com Prices start at £8 for the mug and £15 for the tote bag. Also available on Amazon.
