At 13:21 Frank is badgering Liam for painting sitters "center canvas looking to the left/right", while the charcoal artist did the exact same thing with each of his drawings. Seems the judges had already decided by this point to give the commission to the charcoal drawer.

I felt so moved at seeing the finished portrait, I wept a couple tears. I am an underachieving artist and someone who understands the deep process of seeing into another's soul, then bringing to concretion, the authentic person inside. Ones' work-- revealing the nature of another to the whole world--is a monumental privilege. Thank you all for showing how this is achieved!💚

Kimberly evokes an emotion with her style. A percussionist standing in front of her drum counting out with her fingers is a brilliant concept. Gareth's style of painting the judge comes across as a dream rather than an actuality.

@randommcranderson5155 5 месяцев назад

I had a lot of doubts about Kimberly's ability to actually produce likenesses throughout the season but in this episode she absolutely delivered. I especially liked the 4 hour work she did on Tom Courtney. I don't think she should have won but she definitely produced work that proved she belonged in the finals.

@susanhazard632 2 года назад

I completely agree with the idea of drawing being on the same level as painting. For too long, drawing has been seen as precursor to painting. The winning portrait and even more so, the commission piece of the judge, is masterful. It takes the possibilities of drawing to the level of sublime. I like Liam's work, but it's not the same level as mastery as the drawing.

@kissedbysun2517 2 года назад

I'm confused as to why he's painting the commission after winning for his drawing

@susanhazard632 2 года назад

@@kissedbysun2517 The focus of the judges through the competition is to see the skill and versatility of the artist. He demonstrated his knowledge of capturing a likeness through the challenge of pencil work. He knew a pencil drawing wouldn't be as well received as a painting, for different reasons, so he produced his painting.

@mikf2500 2 года назад

@cristinasujoy 2 года назад

Liam was unlucky in the sitter for his commission. A pretty face does not lend itself to a great portrait. On the other hand he could have looked for a different pise maybe. Gareth’s portrait of the judge had a nobility to it. It was that portrait that gave him the win.

@TremblingQualifier Год назад

Gareth is undoubtedly a talented artist but he got pushed too far simply because he is a drawer. The sitter in his portrait looked anemic instead of alive. The judges bought into the drawing narrative a bit too much and selected someone who did not show anything particularly innovative with drawing.

@susankelemen9764 2 года назад

I'm sorry but Kimberly's painting I would consider an underpainting.

@johnsterman77 2 года назад

Susan, what is an underpainting? Don’t know the term (and I’m not an artist).

@donnawoodford6641 2 года назад

Does that mean unfinished? I'm generally not a fan of the monochromatic style of painting when so many other colors are available.

@susankelemen9764 2 года назад

@@johnsterman77 I was taught to make an underpainting by mixing 1 part damar varnish,1 part turps and 1 part linseed oil. It's a thin liquid that you then add pigment to, can be any color but usually an earthtone like yellow ochre or indian red. Can use prismatics too. Looks to me like she used burnt umber. You can see how drippy and messy this stage is but it allows you to move things around finding the likeness without committing to a defined shape. It's sketching with paint. As you feel happy with the form you start to add color and continue refining shape and stronger color as you go. Using an underpainting is an old classical way to go when the clock is not ticking. The more modern way, thanks impressionists, is to directly apply the "finished color directly on the canvas, ala prima. That's what everyone on the show does because , 4 hours....

@susankelemen9764 2 года назад

@@donnawoodford6641 Well sort of...An underpainting is sketching with paint. It's the start of the process to define the form without committing right away. Usually a mixture of damar varnish,turps and linseed oil is created to which you add a pigment , usually an earth tone like ochre or indian red. Looks like she used burnt umber. It's a very wet messy , drippy goo and you can see all the drips on her canvas. You can keep working this until you get the likeness you like and then you start to add color. On these shows the artists work directly with color from the start because with an underpainting you can only go so far until you have to let that goopy mess dry a bit. 4 hours just isn't enough time to work that way. Hope that helped.

Garth has a great talent. I love pencil myself. Liam is great capturing the likeness also. Kimberly is only being considered because it is different? But honestly different does not make it better. It makes it a laughing stock of pretentiousness. It is what most people do not like about the art world. You might as well be painting made up people from your own imagination

@debterry1007 2 года назад

I'm not sure i agree with the judges but it was not a bad choice... He's very talented and turned out some beautiful work. I thought for sure they would have picked the woman... just knowing the judges i thought they would have went with her. So pleased they did not... I find her excess use of turps gimmicky and faded and just not pleasing to my eye.. So now you know who i think should have won but he's more of a traditional artist and you know by now they do not pick those. Knowing their preferences it was very surprising they put him through in the first place. Anyway he would have been my pick... On to the next season...
