I called the man and his daughter talentless before. And just to reiterate my point, I would like to copy and paste some of his morbid works". I'm a an artist myself but will never win awards because I dont paint the hideous things below.

That's Sita preening her hair sitting on Ravan's lap while Hanuman looks on.
FN Souza's paintings. I think Tina Ambani bought the one below for an eyewatering price.

These two and more were part of the Progressive Artists Group that was a most Eminent awarded group.
Never think that award evaluators have some special powers. ANyone can judge these works. I avoid looking at these because nightmares result but just thought it fortuitous to point out the works of eminent people here.
I had pasted some of their works above but somehow they didnt appear. You can google their names and see their works. Some will say taste is individual, yes ahem, maybe it is, but it isn't anywhere hard to win awards and become eminent. You just have to know what subject to choose.
For eg, recently there was a book or a movie, I forget which exactly, that said that Hindu women go to temples to meet men to fornicate. The courts had called that book freedom of expression and shut down protesters. Now that person is a most eminent and awarded one.
There are countless examples but this a most recent one.
Now have a look at a master's work who will never win any award. See the play of light.

And see the sculptures of Bernini, Caravaggio's portraits, Monet's scapes pr Goya's allegories.
