Where there is no website, the link is to the portrait in the exhibition.
Finding the links became an increasingly fascinating exercise as I began to find out just how many of those exhibiting are not dedicated portrait painters. Plus I found fewer with the standard of website that I'm finding when doing this exercise for other major prizes. Which I find surprising - but it gave me pause for thought when I read Brian Sewell's article - see end.
Then there's the artist who's produced a painting which I now need to go back and look at again, as I'm now wondering just exactly how it was produced (Shades of the AWS 2008!)

Brian is always worth a read, if only for the quality of the vitriol (Brian is no longer a fan of the BP Portrait Award) and I think he may just have surpassed himself this year. For the record, I think some of the things he says are spot on. See if you can work out which those might be.
