We want to let you know that a series of three programmes with Christian Hook, the Winner of Portrait Artist of the Year 2014, will be broadcast on Sky Arts starting 15th September at 8pm.
In this series, Christian takes on the challenge of capturing the essence of three celebrities on canvas. In each programme of this new series he gets to know his sitters across three sittings before undertaking a final painted portrait, which he unveils to them at an exhibition at his Mayfair gallery.
Last year, Christian impressed the judges of Portrait Artist of the Year with his highly original portraits of boxer Amir Khan and actor Sir Ian Mckellen, He then went on to produce an arresting painting of multi-award winning actor, Alan Cumming, for the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, which now hangs in their permanent collection.
