Noel Fielding

Comedian, actor and presenter on ‘The Great British Bake Off’.

During the lockdowns of 2020 the Sky Arts programme ‘Portrait Artist of the Year’ couldn’t be broadcast. So instead on a Sunday morning a celebrity was matched up with one of their artists, and a portrait was painted via zoom, and this was broadcast on Facebook. Thousands of people then watched, and painted along at home – all the while listening to the conversation between the artist and sitter. It was a saving grace for me, along with ‘Portraits for NHS Heroes’ as I had stopped painting. And this also re-awakened my interest in portraiture.
