Everytime I see Pollot's work I need to do a double take because it's iterative of Martin Whatson and think it might be a MW

Based solely on these two pieces, I much prefer Pollot’s take. The extra effort to incorporate the graffiti style into the original picture makes it feel more like a transformative work, where Whatson’s is just layered on top and feels messy as a result.

Pollot put in work and, while I'm not a painter, I don't think interpreting something with oil is that easy.
