Start date for Portrait Artist of the Year Series 12

The start date for the 2025 edition of Portrait Artist of the Year has been announced. Series 12 of PAOTY is starting at 8pm next Wednesday 1st October on Sky Arts TV - available on Freeview.

The series was filmed in April this year at the Battersea Arts centre, where the last few series have been filmed.

You can expect short videos to drop about participants just before each episode - and they are frequently posted on Instagram and/or Facebook.

The Making A Mark Reviews of each PAOTY episode

I will of course being doing my long and detailed reviews of each episode which will drop 1-2 days after the episode airs. The first review will be published on Friday 3rd October (as I have a prior commitment on the 2nd!)

Stuart Prebble 1951-2025

Sadly, going forward the Artist of the Year series will no longer benefit from the wisdom and guidance of Stuart Prebble, the Chairman of Storyvault Films (who make the Artist of the Year series) - who died on 21 August of pancreatic cancer. Below is the tribute to him on the Artist of the Year Instagram account.
