 Sky Portrait Artist of the Week!                                  

08/11/20

How exciting! - to receive a call live on Sky Arts TV from Tai-Shan Shierenberg.  My gouache portrait of the lovely Melanie Blatt (All Saints) won this week's Sky Portrait Artist of the Week!  Using gouache is certainly faster! I couldn't do this show in tempera but I am hoping it may still speed me up a bit! :)
