"What a surreal and incredible experience it was to take part in episode 5 of Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year 2024. It was such a joy to paint the historian Lucy Worsley, alongside such an incredible group of artists. Thank you so much to Lucy for choosing to take my portrait home and to the judges for selecting me to go through to the semi-final!"
