A relatively unknown artist living in Colorado was recently thrust into the spotlight when President Trump criticized her work, a portrait of himself that had been hanging in the State Capitol for about five years.

Mr. Trump said on social media that the oil painting, by Sarah Boardman, which depicts the president with softened features in a dark suit and red tie, was “truly the worst” and that it had been “purposefully distorted.”

“In any event, I would much prefer not having a picture than having this one, but many people from Colorado have called and written to complain,” he wrote on Sunday. “In fact, they are actually angry about it!”

A day later, the Colorado General Assembly,mgbet which is controlled by Democrats, removed the portrait that was hanging in the Gallery of Presidents in the building’s rotunda.

Ms. Boardman, who won a nationwide contest to paint the portraits of President Barack Obama and Mr. Trump that hung in the State Capitol, did not respond to a request for comment.
