BBC sports person of the year. Who will win.

The BBC sports personality of the year is going to be announces on Sunday the 20 December. This year’s event has had some controversy over Tyson Fury. This aside I wanted to honour the Sports people nominated. I have created a series of portraits of the contenders. My aim was not to create a photographic image but to capture something of the essence of each nominee. These are all small oils measuring 20cm sq. At present they are as one art piece with the possible option of separating later.   I have created eleven portraits and one silly sketch…. Only deserving on the nonsense that comes out of his mouth! Its my small protest. I hope you enjoy.   Garth   [gallery ids="1474,1465,1467,1463,1472,1469,1473,1466,1470,1468,1464,1471,1462" type="rectangular"]
