I think Toby's pictures were the best, but putting his own self portrait in the middle of his commission portrait was a clear mistake; maybe that cost him the win, I don't know. the winner, Christobel, falls down in my opinion, due to lack of likeness. To be "fresh" and "minimalist" is not good enough; you really need to nail the likeness.

I think if the commission person wanted a picture of Toby in the work that it might have been better if he had put himself in the background as one of the workers.

I agree. They have all got their very distinctive styles but for me I found Toby’s work a head and shoulder above and I must agree that’s him popping in his self portrait into the commission caught me off guard and might have cost him first place. I believe we will see a lot more of him and his work.

Lemn picked the best one ... but once again, the judges picked the one that looked the least like the sitter, though the commissioned piece was really good ...it was probably that commissioned piece that was the determining factor, because not one of the winner's 4 hour pieces was very good

Inga, your paintings were exceptional! Shout out from S.A. 🎉 Super proud of you!

I think the judges should change their algorithm, managed to chose the worst. Toby and his commission were by far the best and then Inga.

All three of them are good artists who proved themselves. I think the winner was chosen for the contemporary, clean, and minimal take on her subjects. Toby was the strongest artist of the three in pure image making in the classical tradition and his ability to transfer on the canvas what he sees with such grace and lightness is rare. In this final episode, his delivery of the subject's eyes, gaze, and enigmatic half smile was masterful. He already belongs with the greats of portraiture, winner or no winner. What a great talent!

*This show needs new judges. I can't believe who they picked as the winner. Boooooo!* I was team Toby up until today, but I think Inga's paintings were the best in the final.

Toby has been consistently the best of the 3 and Christabel the worst. So Of Course she won! I could see where he was going with the self portrait in the corner - the nod to Velasquez and the subject being Spanish. The Judges as usual were oblivious. I don't think it worked too well, but I understood it, which was more than they did. I would not have had a clue from the other 2 what their subjects did. Seemed the dumpy woman didn't know either, as she talked about Christabel's being in an Office! Shows how much link She has with Reality!. The 3 stooges. Not the artists!

Toby shouldn’t have made his self portrait more prominent then the chef, he should only have suggested his face in the commission.

@hogwashmcturnip8930 4 ай бұрын

@@ricknico2577 I think it cost him the competition. Why put it there? It was distracting and superfluous. A lot of old painters snuck themselves into their work, but they did it so discreetly that you have to look for them and know who they are. The only one who put himself up front was Velasquez, and Toby ain't Velasquez!

@ricknico2577 4 ай бұрын

Toby ruined his commission buy placing his self portrait in it, way more prominent then the actual chef that he was painting. Sad since i loved everything else he did.

They look like a portrait art class with no particular stars. (in my opinion)

Ain't that the truth.

Christabell is the weakest one. Every episode is reaching a new height of wrong choice and injustice!!! The winner is the most surprised one by the judges wrong choice.

@avian_donn3369 4 ай бұрын

I just couldn't get into Christabel's work. The judges called it minimalist. I thought it was very two dimensional and flat. It was almost cartoonish with it's big blocks of solid color.I thought both the other two were better all the way through. Oh well. This is why I'm not an art judge.

Her best work was her self portrait, then it all went downhill. Either of the other finalists would have been a better pick, but the judges want something different, so they have achieved that, more’s the pity.

@janepage3608 4 ай бұрын

Originally I totally agreed with everyone who said it shouldn’t have been Christobel, but thinking it over later, her commission was stunning. It leapt out at you from the wall, interesting composition and a very strong style of her own. Toby was brilliant at thr 4hour portraits, but never again are any of them going to be asked to do a portrait in four hours. If it was just who was best at the competition portraits - definitely Toby, but if it’s who is most likely to make a name in the future as a portrait artist- then I understand why they chose Christobel.

@aunaturel4 4 ай бұрын

What a terrible decision. Toby should have won this, without question. I don't even think she should have made it to the final.

@M.Campbell 4 ай бұрын

Christabel has the most distinctive and consistent style of the three. You'll know what you are going to get with one of her paintings. That's a very good thing in the portrait painting world..
