Home is Where the Art is – TV appearance Guide Price – £1000 “I was asked by the BBC to take part in a new series called Home is Where the Art is. The show is a new format and looks at three artists in each episode, competing to win a commission from a mystery buyer. The three artists meet at the buyers house and receive a brief and a budget. For the episode I was involved in, I was pitted against a stainless steel sculptor and an acrylic pet portrait painter. Three very different mediums! The brief was to create something that captured the spirit and form of the buyer’s beloved horse, ‘Dragon’. We all got to snoop around the buyer’s house to get a feel for the kind of things they might like. We also got to meet Dragon, which gave us all a flavour of his temperament and form.”
