It was definitely the one that I would have chosen to win as well. 👏👏

Really like Sarah Harvey's watercolor paintings. All the artists are brilliant. Love watching them work.

Will Terry’s painting was by far the best one of the day! That young man will go far! Boo to those “judges”

What a lush painting, absolutely masterful. I was stunned when they didn’t choose him.

Will Terry's was the best piece there today... can't believe that his didn't even make the top 3....but of the ones that did make the top 3, they definitely picked the best one of those for the winner

I have to agree wholeheartedly with you! Clearly the best painting of the day!

A watercolor won! Wow!

Can't say I agree with all the three last choices. The water colour was great. But Will's portrait of Nish was the hands-down winner for me.

@triconcert. I loved Will's portrait too, the colours were wonderful, but I loved Sarah's painting a little bit more. P.S. Will is very young. I believe he's heading for a great future. 😍

Absolutely agree! Will's portrait was the best likeness but also unique. I know the judges are often looking for something a little out of the ordinary, and I think this was. He captured Nish's eyes perfectly, as well as the madness of his hair. I'm surprised he didn't make it into the final three, at least. Disappointing. Sarah's painting was also nice, but not the best of the day.

Thanks for posting Banijay!

For me, there were two very clear standouts: Will and Sarah. I’m shocked that Will’s portrait didn’t make the top three, but I’m very happy that Sarah won 🎉

It is nice to see a watercolorist win!

I struggle the most with watercolors.

The winner 🏆 is WILL TERRY. The dazzling use of colors brown and black is a tour de force. The madness of the hair and perfection of the beard plus capturing the funny, gentle soul of NISH is astonishing. I'm surprised, shocked, really, NISH, not selecting it as favorite. The judges deserve a well-earned spanking for not selecting the TERRY. for at least a top 3.

Aside from being technically masterful, his painting was quite poetic. He was my choice from the beginning, and I was shocked by the results of the judges.

First time I have ever liked a linocut !

I am so envious of the talent displayed by these artists and would buy any of their submitted self portraits. It occurred to me that a television show consisting of people like myself who cannot make the connection between what I see and what comes out of my fingers might be hilarious. Thank goodness for real talent.

4 hours is really not long enough but they really nailed it!

WILL TERRY ‼️

Thank you for posing these shows I have learned so much and it keeps me inspired to continue to paint.

It was between Sarah and Will for me. Still can’t decide between the two.

Beautiful choice!

This is the first one in the series, where I feel it’s extremely difficult to choose, as all the artist are just doing such an incredible job with their own unique look!

Stunning work

Intriguing, fascination, and very enjoyable watching the process. Thanks

Sarah's watercolor was by far the best... deserves to win

Fingerpainting. I like the bold move!

Sophie, Will and Sarah were definitely top 3. Any one of them would have been a worthy winner. So Sarah made the top 3 and won. At least the judges got the correct winner.

Thankyou uploader. Much appreciated. good choice for Winner. But a couple of the Nish ones should have bn finalists

In the last group I’m not agreed, the best was the guy who did the monochrome portrait that did the dark background, the other two artist didn’t have their proportions rights and the eyes where distorted and not in the right place.. very disappointed.. the 18 year old was the best in the entire competition.

I agree, his painting spoke the loudest to me as far as technical ability.

Impressive choice.

Harvey’s painting was sublime

yes, it is the best!

Sara and Will were my favs. I love wood/linoleum prints but I thought it was a bit muddled, I thought Liams was kind of stoggey compared to Wills. But LIam’s self portrait was my favorite of all the images

perfect choice

I am not sure about Lucy's woodcut but her sketch would have made an awesome entry!

I hadn’t heard of this show. Loved it!!!!

Still thankful for the upload inspite of the video quality

Im so surprised at the pictures chosen by the sitters.

Absolutely! The portrait of the girl with long legs was very amateurish - although her self portrait was great. And next door to it was the fabulous water colour!

Let’s be honest, as an American when I watch this show I literally 99.9% of the time have no idea who any of the sitters are.

That was the first time in watching this series that I’ve been surprised by the sitters’ choice of portraits. You can usually depend on the sitters to choose what ‘we’ think is the best, no matter what strange choices the official judges make. But definitely not this time.

I loved them all. How can you pick one over the other?

Will or Sarah would be my choice . Shocked the celebrities picked the ones they did

Finally i can agree with the judges! Brilliant winner

is this old series (when) or new?

Yes they chose the best one ,I did like Will Terrys painting of Nish Kumar too shame he didn’t get in .They say portraits on these programmes but a lot never look like the sitters yet the judges ooh and ahh about them .

I thought Will did the best.

Nobody shakes hands anymore. Sad.

The world must be coming to an end! The judges *FINALLY* chose the best artist. Never thought I'd live to see the day!

Alexa, what an absolutely unfortunate name. 😂

Wow the first two picked the worst painting of their groups.

I love your program. However that being said I truely wonder if you missed the fact that the covid crises ended a long time ago with its social distancing measures of which we now know these where not backed by any science, so totally useless. Why do you produce this cold inhumane show in stead of the warm and connecting atmosphere you so wonderfully presented in 2020 before all the trouble started?

Would you please tell all of your artists to keep their hands out of their paint. Almost all paints are toxic and cause any numbers of illnesses. Cancer, nerve damage and on and on.

Sorry. Once again I don't agree with the three pick - very sad. Sarah however is a good pick for winner.
