I prefer the Landscape Artist series personally; I find it more interesting with different challenges. That said, I met a previous year's semi finalist at an Open House event and it was interesting to learn more about the process. I have never attempted portraiture so hats off to the artists. Their submissions take many, many hours more than they are given - with interruptions - on this show but when I saw the second SF I was disappointed that most of the Emma Bunton portraits had such little likeness. Disappointing.
