alison Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 The one time I get behind with checking the TV guide, I find that the Acosta episode was shown last night on Sky Arts It's 11/11, if anyone wants to look it up. It may still be on repeat for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capybara Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 A lovely programme with a unique artistic talent 'painting' Carlos. Well worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Pigeons Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I do so agree. I really enjoyed this. I really liked the artist and their utterly amiable relationship. Seeing Brandon Lewis and Celine Gittens was a lovely bonus. The end result is fabulous and I am sure the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery is very pleased with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard LH Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 The discussions between Carlos and the artist were interesting, but personally I found the latter's line drawing style a little "samey" and limited in depth. I would have liked to see a painting of Carlos by either of the other two finalists. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Assuming you meant Lawrence rather than Lewis) Brandon and Celine were smiling guests at the unveiling of the portrait and were asked to comment (briefly). It was a nice touch to involve the Company. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
