Sky Arts 'Portrait Artist of the Year' - Edinburgh Heat Finalist 2014

I competed in Sky Arts 'Portrait Artist of the Year' 2014 and reached finalist level in the Edinburgh heats. I was delighted to have Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes as my subject and although the day was very busy I was still pleased with my accomplishments in the short and busy four hours we were all given.

Check out the wonderful time-lapse video Sky have produced Julian Fellowes sitting …




… they also had some lovely things to say about my painting…

"Teri-Anne's miniature portrait of Julian Fellowes was an instant head-turner. All three judges were wowed by the striking likeness and level of detail Teri-Anne achieved in just four hours."




I managed to catch up with Julian Fellowes recently for a lovely cup of tea and to finally hand over the completed portrait! I'm so pleased with the finished thing and I hope Julian is too!
