I enjoy seeing the many portriat artists with their wonderfully varying techniques.
And I know art is something that appeals in many different ways - there is no uniform or formulaic method of appreciation.
That aside, in the 2020 PAOTY the pontificating judges staked a claim in the eventual winner from the outset and her journey to success was always guaranteed. I found several other artists to be more insightful and skilful but they were ditched along the way.
Like another reviewer, I enjoyed the process and was able to form my own appreciation of the many talents on display and the final result was of little importance to me.
