    The quality of these portraits far outshines that of most of the landscape work we see in this series.
    But, I’m bothered by the idea of selecting the best three or the best one.
    Especially by these judges whose critical analysis doesn’t feel to be very high…at least from the comments I hear them make on this video.

      I wonder if they are more interested in the work that artist could produce for the final piece rather than this specific one? They also sounded like they decided they loved this artists work before seeing this painting.
      Also for signatures, if people don’t sign the front do they at least sign the back so after they are gone we don’t lose who the artist was?

    I am an artist and I absolutely loatheeee listening to people talk about art like the currators dissecting the artist's work. It is one of the most obnoxious things to me. These people just labored for hours and their brains and their hands worked together to create something that only they could do, and the judges just scoff at most of their work, like at one point just going down the line saying "nope, nope, nope, nope" it bothers me to me core.

      But especially the sour faced Kathleen with her matching sour personality who always finds something catty, condescending and disparaging to say like “ clumsy brushstrokes” or “ naive”
      But the cake in my opinion took the old woman who announces the times remaining with such self importance - when she said about Christian’s fabulous Portrait that since it came so easy to him it should count against him!
      And to encourage the artists not to sign their work is beyond ridiculous!

    Something I think one should keep in mind when watching, is that the judges, Evan if they won’t say it, don’t give a damn if the art itself is good or bad, they care about whether it would sell. I think they should have had artists to do the judging, not gallery owners

    • @katalinelo8011
      @katalinelo8011 Год назад +1

      It's the first season. Later on they settled for one location for every heat and after the third or fourth season they changed to a location with artificial light only to solve the issue of the moving sun they head earlier (there was a venue used with glass ceiling for a while and most artists had issues with light shining through their canvas and with moving shadows on the models). Also they reduced the number of painters to nine per heat, (with six semifinalists and three finalists), and the backdrops and props were minimized too to a painted wall and the same chair for all sitters. I think it was needed to make it easier to finish the pictures in the given time with less busy setups.

    I've really gotta into watching this show but this episode has me cringing. Why did the editors and judges seem to ignore Scott Pohlschmidt's full-body painting of the rugby player? we never even see a close-up of the finished product and it wasn't even talked about it all even when they're discussing the rugby player paintings! even though the few glimpses we do see of it it looks like it's one of the best? Maybe it's because the guy owns his own studio or is a professional. It can't be based solely on the painting it just doesn't make sense that they wouldn't even show it in the edit.
