  • Frank Skinner, Joan Bakewell and the judges move the competition to Wales, where 12 gifted artists get just four hours to paint celebrities including Greg Davies.
    Portrait Artist of the Year is a competition art show aiming to find the best portrait painter of the year.
    Each episode features a regional competition and contestants are challenged to produce a portrait of one of three famous sitters.
    As the competition goes on, three artists will remain, and these finalists will have their work displayed in the world-famous National Portrait Gallery in London. The winner eventually receives a $10,000 commission to become a permanent part of the British Library!

    Having a forest as a background for a sitting and the sitter in a sofa was kind of a weird choice. Still, I love this program so much and discovering so so sooo many artis and styles in every episode is so refreshing.

    Listening to the judges critiquing, I got the feeling they were saying things because they think other art critics will critique their critiques. Lol. Oh, I think it's actually something very complicated masquerading as something simple. The paintings of the athlete were simply awful across the board.

    All 3 of the finalists had excellent work. Yes, it would be difficult to work in wax to produce such a fine painting. The layers required for a pointalist in just a few hours...whew! And Jack's painting is not cartoony in the slightest. He uses both technique and color in a sophisticated way. Bravo to all 3!

    Nice to have an episode without the likeness discussion in the shortlisted artists. I thought all were great, but I can imagine having someone with an exotic technique swayed things in his favor. I loved the colors on the face in jacks version, and the palette knife techniques in Hesters work was lovely as well.

      Drawing a muscular person requires a different set of skills than most portrait artists have. Body anatomy need a lot of knowledge to make it well. She woudl be indeed a FASTANTIC model, but for someone that was experienced in body and anatomy.
