My Portrait of Nihal Arthanayake for Portrait artist of the week.
It’s a weekly live streaming series on Sky arts FB, where the audience is invited to paint along with the artist and submit their finished portraits of the sitter.
It’s been a really fun and enlightening challenge to paint along virtually with thousands of people in the UK and around the world, and to see all the different portrait styles of the same person.

You’re so welcome, I’ve been enjoying them. Your Floella Benjamin one was a total joy aswell, really captured her!

Holy cow, Tiffany. This is so well done. His eyes are excellent. The shape of his face is so perfect. What a great painting. Neat idea to paint as a community, too.
