Smart Gallery Best Selling Artist John Myatt New TV Series ‘Brush With Fame’!

without comments

John Myatt and John Cleese

John Myatt and John Cleese

New TV series ‘Brush With Fame’!

Six of Britain’s well-known faces from music, television and photography are immortalised in the style of six of the world’s most renowned artists in the brand new series ‘Brush with Fame’, premiering on Sky Arts 1 and Sky Arts HD from Wednesday 4 February 2009 at 7.30pm each week.

Following on from John Myatt’s first major art series for Sky Arts, the hugely popular ‘Mastering the Art’ series, Sky Arts has enlisted Myatt to bring John Cleese, David Bailey, Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, Robin Gibb, Jane Horrocks and Ian Brown to life on canvas in the style of one of the great masters.

Socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson talks about ‘that kiss’ with Prince Charles, whilst legendary photographer David Bailey reminisces about photographing Princess Diana and offers his controversial opinion on her looks.

Offering a fascinating insight into the process of portraiture, Myatt also explores the individual technique of each iconic master painter and highlights why his choice of artist is so appropriate to the subjects.

  • John Cleese (Matisse)
  • David Bailey (Giacometti)
  • Tara Palmer Tomkinson (Modigliani)
  • Jane Horrocks (Sargent)
  • Robin Gibb (Van Gogh)
  • Ian Brown (Cezanne)

With fantastic press coverage (including Daily Express Articles – see pictures below..)
