President’s review of the year
Welcome to the 124th Royal Society of Portrait Painters Annual Open
Exhibition. The portraits on show draw from members and non-members
alike. This year, we received in the region of 1,900 portraits from our
digital submission, with a final 91 making it onto the walls.
It is also my pleasure to introduce myself as
the new President of the RP. I have been
exhibiting with the RP since the nineties and
in 2008 was elected to membership. I became
a Council member in 2009 and have sat on
the People’s Portraits Standing Committee
at Girton since 2010. I’m a practising
portrait painter and I lecture at the National
Portrait Gallery and National Gallery. My
ambition for the Society as President, is to
continue to build on our history and strong
reputation for high quality commissioned
portraiture and share our knowledge and
experience through education.
Management, we are able to offer
workshops during our show in the excellent
Learning Centre at the Mall Galleries.
We are delighted to be able to continue to
award our generous and established prizes.
Congratulations go to our 2014
prizewinners. We are, as ever, grateful for
the generosity of our sponsors’ support and
belief in the Society’s remit. This year we
have also been able to add Burke’s Peerage
Foundation. These prizes are valuable to the
recipients, many of whom establish higher
profiles from being showcased in this way.
2014 saw the Bulldog Bursary awarded
to Emma Hopkins. Emma, along with 2013
recipient, Sarah Jane Moon, has an
exhibition during the show in the Mall
Galleries’ Learning Centre.
On behalf of the Society, I would like to
thank Alastair Adams for his direction and
leadership over the last six years. Alastair
gave us a fine new website and a new
image. His enthusiasm and very hard work
helped to guide the Society through difficult
economic times. Thanks also go to Andy
James for his work alongside Alastair as
Vice President over his term. Michael Taylor
stepped down from the Council on
completion of his two-year rotation and his
contribution is greatly appreciated.
Robin-Lee Hall, the new President of the RP
All of the RP’s activities are as a result of
abundant goodwill, support and advice
from friends, members and our highly
experienced and valued Advisory Board.
This is also an opportunity for me to introduce
some new faces on the Council. Taking over
the role of Vice President is Simon Davis, Hon.
Secretary from 2010. Melissa Scott-Miller
has returned to the role of Hon. Secretary.
Sam Dalby, Sheldon Hutchinson and Tom
Coates have stepped on to the Council.
This year sees an expansion of our
relationship with Seven Investment
Management and their generous £15,000
Conversations Prize. The shortlisted works
and winner will be displayed in the
Threadneedle Space. Thanks to our
sponsorship from Seven Investment
And finally, it’s important to remember to
thank the subjects and commissioners of
our own paintings. The sitter’s time and the
patron’s willingness to support artists by
funding and loaning works is greatly
appreciated and helps make exhibitions and
artistic careers all the richer.
The People’s Portraits collection at Girton
continues to go from strength to strength
with Jason Walker donating his portrait of
‘Brooksy’. This year the collection
celebrates its 15th anniversary and there
will be a small selection of paintings on
show in the Threadneedle Space.

Girton College Cambridge is the
home of the People’s Portraits
collection. Video artist and Girton
College Artist in Residence,
Sonny Sanjay Vadgama, talks
about his experience in the role.
Immersing myself in University life, and
collaborating with the students and staff at
Girton College has proved to be a rich
experience. It is one that has fuelled my
own work, and as I now feel comfortable
here, I can get on with making things in a
stimulating environment. Looking back a
year, I can see how my ideas have changed,
and how my inspiration has altered and
shifted in shape. This new environment has

acted as a clean slate in terms of the kind of
media I am gravitating towards, and being
constantly surrounded by portraits is
influencing the way I create work. Film and
3D continue to form the backbone of my
practice, but I am enjoying the process of
creating a new series of work, drawing
from the energy and history that is layered
within a single image. I try not to speculate
on how work will evolve, but seeing the
diversity of what has already been created
feels extremely positive.
My first weeks here demonstrated the need
to raise awareness of the Artist in
Residency scheme in order for the staff and
students at Girton (and beyond) to know
about the scheme and to interact with it. I
attempted to do this by turning the studio
into a focal point for interactivity. I
encouraged both staff and students to
collaborate with me, and to use the space to
expand their interests and think about the
intersections between different kinds of
creativity. Film nights, poetry readings and
social soirées soon followed.
Working in Girton College required a
paradigm shift in working, having grown
accustomed to compact artists’ studios that
offered limited chances for interactivity
beyond the occasional conversation in a
grotty communal kitchen. I learnt Girton
had accepted me for the residency a year
before, and initially, set about trying to plan
how to make the most of it. Such a strategy
only seemed logical, but I soon realised the
‘logical’ could hardly be applied to an
environment that I had no experience of.
Subsequently, trusting my gut was the best
compass, and immersing myself in
Sonny Sanjay Vadgama
collegiate activities proved beneficial. Not
only did it introduce me to new friends but
it also taught me how to relax and enjoy
some of the more formal traditions at
Cambridge University.
Attending lectures was one of the ‘logical’
plans I did follow through with, and I can
wholeheartedly describe the experience as
rewarding. Setting-up a new artist’s studio
has always been a challenging process for
me, so being able to attend lectures on
subjects such as Philosophy and History of
Art was food for thought and a fertile
source of inspiration that could feed ideas
into my own practice.
The People’s Portraits collection at Girton
College Cambridge is a unique collection of
portraits of ordinary people in the UK today,
painted by members of the Royal Society of
Portrait Painters. For more information, visit:

The Bulldog Bursary 2015
Latest winner, Emma Hopkins,
talks about how she works, and
the opportunities that have arisen
from winning.
At eighteen, I moved to London from
Brighton to study for a degree in Make-up
and Prosthetics for Performance. I had
always drawn inspiration for art work from
anything human, and it seemed fitting to
use the body as my canvas.
I learnt a lot about how to work respectfully
and intimately with another person and
their body, how to guide them through
narrative, and how to portray character. By
the end of my course, I was designing,
directing and filming performance pieces.
Then, I graduated.
I tried to fit myself into the designated
performance industries, I even tried to fit
myself into the medical industry by working
for a prosthetic limb manufacturer. But I
couldn’t. I saw a psychotherapist, started
working in a little fine art supply shop,
trusted my instincts and started to paint.
Four and a half years later, and after a huge
amount of trial and error, I applied for the
Bulldog Bursary, and, to my bewilderment,
I was successful.
In this exhibition you will see my oil
painting of Geri Morgan. Within the Mall
Galleries’ Learning Centre, until 19th April,
alongside other works I have made since
winning the bursary, will be my encounters
with Geri Morgan. They are recorded
through preliminary sketches and paintings
and a collaboration with the video and
sound artist Debra Welch.
Geri Morgan was born in London in 1926.
Amongst many other things, Geri is a
painter and was the principal of the Byam
Shaw School of Art from 1970 to 1991. Each
week, I visit Geri at his home in Islington.
We make our way slowly up the winding,
creeking stairs to his studio in the attic,
where, after the ritual of a coffee and chat,
he paints me and then I paint him.
I paint, and feel lucky that I can combine my
various skills into a practice that is
beginning to take shape. Winning the
Bulldog Bursary has been a momentous
achievement for me, and given me real
confidence and support. I will be eternally
grateful for this unique opportunity.
Despite the fact that since 1948 he has used
life models for his own work, not until now
has Geri swapped roles and sat for a
painting himself. I have depicted him in a
chair used by his models for over 40 years.
I now also hold a pose in this chair for him
each week. The markings covering the chair
were crucial for me to include as they hold
the memory of the physical positions of his
models, meaningful friendships and
beautiful paintings.
I have filled Geri’s gaze with the intensity
that I see when he paints me, and also the
wealth of emotion and kindness he emits
as a friend. I chose to paint on a plain
translucent fabric as this forces you to
observe intently the person, while also
giving the work a sense of space. I have
constructed a frame that contains Geri in a
space that echos that of the sloped ceilinged
attic. I wanted the piece to have a feeling of
being unbalanced but at the same time
solid. This is because, despite Geri’s
strength as a person, he struggles at times
with the control of his body.
I am the most at ease and stimulated when

Ever wondered how a portrait is commissioned?
Finding the right artist is a bit like falling in love – people know when
they have found the right portrait painter for them.
Commissioning a portrait is easy and
enjoyable. Before launching into selecting
an artist, you will need to have an idea
about who or what you would like to have
portrayed, roughly what size you would like
the work of art to be, and whether it is to be
a painting or drawing. Artists’ fees vary
from small sums to small fortunes so the
other aspect to address is a budget.
The most important stage is to select an
appropriate artist, which, without help, can
be an overwhelming task. This is why we
believe our ‘One Stop Shop’ for portrait
commissions is so useful. We pride
ourselves on our expertise and knowledge
of the portraits market, along with the
standard of our members’ work.
Annabel Elton, our Head of Commissions,
has over 30 years of experience, and she
has developed systems to ensure the whole
process is easy and enjoyable. She is able to
provide advice and guidance from artist
selection through to completion.
Our website is a good place to start
(www.therp.co.uk) with its ‘Choose an
artist’ section. In addition, Annabel offers
personal consultations either in person, by
appointment or by email.
Once chosen, it’s time to meet the artist,
discuss the detail and agree a quote, only
then do we book the first sitting. Most
artists will travel to their sitter, but some
prefer the more stable conditions of their
studio. The number of sittings needed
varies depending on the medium, the artist
and their method of work; some artists will
use photography and others work only
from life but, broadly speaking, two to
eight sittings of 1.5 hours is the average.
Most importantly, sittings are enjoyable
and friendships are often formed between
sitter and artist.
Once the work is finished, the artist will
help you to choose a frame and the
finish, and then you can enjoy the fruits of
your part in the creative process for years
to come.
Please contact us if you would like to find
out more about commissioning a portrait.

Alice Bell
by Simon Davis VPRP RBSA
“We wanted a portrait of our ten-year
old daughter, Alice. We had never
commissioned a portrait before and
didn’t know what to expect but Annabel
helped us identify potential artists and
create a shortlist from which we chose
Simon Davis. Everything was very clear
in terms of logistics, pricing, payment,
etc. Alice is never great at sitting still but
she was very excited and honoured to be
painted! Simon was very good at
engaging her and making it fun. We are
delighted with the end result – he has
really captured Alice’s personality and
her internal world, as well as what she
looks like on the outside.”

The Paikin Girls
by Valeriy Gridnev RP PS ROI
“I commissioned the portrait for my husband’s
birthday. We loved the whole process involving many
‘secret’ sittings with the wonderful Valeriy. We were
all thrilled with the result.”
Professor William Brown
Darwin College, Cambridge
by Geoffrey Hayzer RP
“I’ve worked with him for twelve years
and it’s like a viva! He’s sitting there
giving you a severe ‘listening to’ and
he’s about to ask the penetrating
question that’s going to be extremely
difficult to answer!”
Peter Brindle, Darwin College Cambridge
Irayne Paikin
Sir Tim Wilson
by Brendan Kelly RP
“As part of our commitment to creating
an artwork-rich campus that reflects a
whole range of our interests, having
portraits of our university founding Vice
Chancellors, created by a young and
contemporary portrait artist, allows us
to talk about our history as a university
in more traditional terms, and also
creates a permanent memorial to people
who helped us to the strong position
we are in today.”
“A photograph simply
couldn’t do the same for
us…we will treasure
this for years to come.”
Chris McIntyre, Dean of Cultural Affairs and
Director of UHArts, University of Hertfordshire

‘Conversations’ Prize
Seven Investment Management (7IM) provides investment services for a
whole range of clients – from family businesses to sports people, from ‘tech’
entrepreneurs to journalists, large company chairmen to pensioners, trusts,
charities and many more besides.
The original seven of us set up our business 13 years ago, because – simply
put – we couldn’t find an investment company that we could trust with our
own pension monies. Today, we manage around £8bn for clients who like
our straightforward approach – to managing money, to talking to them
without jargon and acronyms, and to being wholly transparent about what
we charge for it all. So conversations are at the heart of our business, it’s
only through talking to people that we get to really understand them and
appreciate what they need us to help them to do; be it provide for a family,
secure a future or protect the fruits of a working life.
We are delighted to be sponsoring the Royal Society of Portrait
Painters again this year, and the ‘Conversations’ Prize is close to our hearts.
After all, our origins go back to a conversation too, one between Justin
and Tom, our CEO, in a staff canteen discussing the kind of business
they would like to run, now they do…
The Ondaatje Prize

The Changing Faces Prize
The Changing Faces Prize is awarded to the artist whose portrait most powerfully conveys the energy
of their subject, the directness of their gaze and an attitude that exudes openness and confidence.
The Prize is a £2,000 commission to paint a portrait of a person who has a facial disfigurement for the
Changing Faces Collection. The Collection aims to ensure that people with unusual faces are fairly
represented in modern-day portraiture.
Each year, as our commissioned artist reveals their work, we are reminded of the power of portraiture
to challenge assumptions and expectations about what it means to have an unusual appearance. As
well as the scar, the birthmark or asymmetrical features, the artist and his subject help you see a
confident communicator, an attractive person with skills, talents and personality, and an individual
who has a valid place in society.
We look forward to congratulating the Prize winner.

Ella, at the brink of her
9th birthday, is a lover

confident and noisy at
home but is just as shy
as any child when she
is out in the big wide
world. Here she is twice:
In the hall and on the
threshold of the house.

Shot by Ned
137 x 107 cm (54 x 42 ins)
Oil
I have a go at a family portrait every now and
then. I am keen to record the family as it grows.
This is the first floor landing of our house: a busy
junction of the home. Bedrooms, a bathroom and
my studio lead directly off it. It becomes Ned’s
space base, Ella’s dance floor and Hattie’s Gym at
weekends. In the middle of the night panicking
feet tumble through it towards our bedroom to
escape nightmares and in the morning impatient
siblings pace the floor awaiting the bathroom slot.
It would be lovely to think we all interact
wonderfully all the time but of course the reality is
we disappear into our own worlds or that of the
ether while inhabiting the same space. Ned,
however, although self-sufficient, demands
attention from his siblings and his Mum and Dad.
Lisa here would be the only real witness to my
assassination.

This portrait was commissioned as a
wedding present for Shubha and her
husband James by his parents. There are
biographical elements in the portrait:
Shubha’s dress is the one she was wearing
when James proposed; her wedding sari is
draped over her arm and she is wearing her
mother in law’s jewellery. Shubha’s natural
demeanour made me think of Dominique
Ingres’ wonderful society portraits, and I
think some of that elegance has come
through in the finished piece.

Kathryn and Milo

Work in progress
This is a mother and son portrait, in a pose
I observed them naturally adopt after an
Easter lunch last year. Something about the
rhythm of the pose, the colour and the age
old ‘mother and son’ motif really captivated
me, and I mentally archived it as a potential
portrait. Some months later, I asked Kathryn
and Milo to pose for me in the exact same
position. I always think of other artists and
works when I am painting, and with this
piece, I could not help thinking of the ‘pieta’
theme, especially with Kathryn’s outfit
(albeit in a very modern style!) of royal blue
and touches of gold.

Dr Ann Rhys
40 x 51 cm (16 x 20 ins)
Oil
Dr Ann Rhys is fondly known in Wales as
‘Dr Ann’. Since retiring as a psychiatrist
with special interests in mental health
problems in the community in Ceredigion
and consulting psychiatrist to the University
of Wales, Aberystwyth, she has become
somewhat of a celebrity on the Welsh
language programme Prynhawn Da. For the
past 15 years she has had a weekly slot,
sharing her expert medical knowledge and
helpful advice on television and radio.
Through all this, she managed to raise seven
children, and is grandmother to 13 – she also
happens to be my mother in law, and is an
extraordinary person!
The portrait was completed over several
sittings, and was painted entirely from life.
It was a gradual process that incorporated
many subtle changes in expression and
pose. Through these many observations,
I feel that I was able to capture a true sense
of her warmth and questioning nature.

Past Chairman of The Bulldog Trust
76 x 98 cm (30 x 39 ins)

I first met Tigger in 2007 at Two Temple Place,
home to the charity, The Bulldog Trust. The
event was an exhibition of self-portraits by RP
members, which also served as the launch of
the then new Bulldog Portrait Bursary to
support portrait painters in their early career.
I was the first fortunate recipient of this
award. Receiving the Bulldog Bursary was a
life changing experience that helped me
tremendously in establishing myself as a
portrait painter. I was thrilled, therefore, to
have the opportunity to paint this portrait of
Tigger for The Bulldog Trust.
During the sittings, I was introduced to the
wonderful bronze bulldog, symbol of the Trust.
It quickly became apparent that this cast
bronze sculpture was to play an important role
in the portrait. I really enjoyed the sittings, and
with them, the opportunity of getting to know
a very kind and considerate man.

This painting was done over a year
between Danielle’s opera engagements
in the US at the Met, Norway, or
wherever. We painted in the big Organ
Room at Glyndebourne. Danni was
marvellous, but the conditions were not:
winter sun tended to pour across the
room (death to the painting), and it was
freezing. Danni, in her gorgeous couture
dress, didn’t seem to notice – amazing!

Peter Avis and Andrew Keener Talking Music
107 x 152.5 cm (42 x 60 ins)

These two charmers were irresistible as a conversational subject. Immersed as they both are
professionally in music, I wanted the close interplay of empathy and separateness. Despite the
cramped room and frequent, frustrating bursts of sun (no north facing room available) it was a
thoroughly enjoyable exercise, and started, by pure coincidence before I knew of the RP’s
‘Conversations’ project.

Anthony Morris RP NEAC
Portrait of Jack Morris
84 x 75 cm (33 x 30 ins)
Oil
This is a portrait of my younger
brother Jack. We were both always
drawing at home and at school, where
we were lucky to have such an
inspiring art master who gave us much
encouragement.
I left school to go to Oxford School of
Art, and Jack, three years later, in 1957,
took drawings along to Morris Motors
at Cowley and joined the Technical
Publications Division. He recalls his
first test piece was to draw a fuel tank
unit, drawn with a crow quill, ruler and
french curves.
Jack spent the rest of his working life
at Cowley, producing fantastic cutaway
drawings for many publications, so
much so that you could get into the car
and drive it away. He now lives in
Garsington, Oxfordshire, with his wife
Jill, and is now producing wonderful
wildlife paintings and scenes of the
local countryside.

Sir Donald Sinden CBE (detail)
133 x 107 cm (52 x 42 ins)
Oil
We had known the Sindens for decades,
and had talked earlier about a portrait –
but it somehow did not get under way until
he was in his late eighties. He was busy,
and had been out-of-work as an actor for
only five weeks until a few years ago.
Sittings were spread over 2012 to 2014.
I had seen him in a one-man performance,
and I wished to echo that isolated single
figure on a stage, with theatrical lighting.
I made the background a vivid colour, and
I would not have done that to a more
ordinary sitter. He telephoned me once,
speaking for nearly an hour: then there
was a pause of three minutes, and he rang
again and talked for a further forty
minutes. Wonderful, wonderful stuff. And,
of course, I wanted to show his humour,
his exhilarating life-enhancing humour.
His home, Rat’s Castle, was a wonder of
theatre associations. My room when I
stayed there had numerous pictures – and
a blotter marked JG… John Gielgud. In
fact, the can he holds in the portrait had
belonged to John Mills.
I painted many theatre and film figures
years ago, and his view on them was subtly
different from mine since he had worked
with them as a relatively young actor; and
in fact I have just been commissioned to
paint Dame Judi Dench, so to my delight
that continues…

A couple of years ago, I drew Lexie’s brother, Charlie, when he was the
same age as she is now. I showed that portrait here too. Four and threequarters is a significant age, and an individual’s character and personality
emerges – with these two, anyway – by then.

Work in progress
My portrait began with a head painting on a 10” canvas,
until my subject, a distinguished author, asked if she
might work on her laptop while I worked on my drawing,
and this set the pose for the full figure painting. Then, the
Christopher Wood hanging above the El Greco-crimson
couch began to dominate all my visual responses. To find
my way into the delicate tonal rhythms of the head and
features, I worked first with the veils of light and shadow
thrown by a table lamp to criss-cross and unify the
picture surface.

Taipans on the 48th Floor
115 x 160 cm (45 x 63 ins)

I first drew my Taipan subjects individually in their city offices
before following them to Hong Kong for a fortnight of backto-back company meetings. The office I was given to use as
a studio had large porthole windows looking at the harbour,
and these set the circular motifs for my final painting. The
interacting circle of figures sat together for only two or three
posed meetings, but each director would call in separately
to read through the papers or just to wind down with
conversation unrelated to company business while I worked
on my painting. The only Chinese, Hong Kong based,
director would come in early each morning to sit for a direct
painting head study while educating me with his deep
knowledge of the history of the company. My commission
was to create a painting based on a previous company
portrait by the 19th century painter George Chinnery.

Over one million people in the UK have
a disfigurement. Some are born with a
birthmark or congenital condition;
others acquire scarring, asymmetry or
reduced movement as a result of
accidents, violence, warfare, cancer
surgery, facial paralysis and skin
conditions.
Every day they are vulnerable to
staring, bullying, prejudice and
discrimination – on the street, at school
and in the workplace. For 20 years,
Changing Faces has been transforming
lives with empowering support while
promoting fair treatment and equal
opportunities through our Face
Equality campaign.
Michael, a psychology student, who
has facial burns, says:
“‘When I was eleven, I had a horrible
experience on a train. I was sitting next
to my Mum and I could feel the piercing
glares of everyone around me. I
couldn’t handle it so I pulled my coat
over my head and left it there the whole
journey as I shed tears. My mother then
decided that enough was enough and
sought help.
Changing Faces offered me support
from the age of eleven to 14. Sharing
my feelings with one of their team and
learning techniques to tackle the stares
was immensely helpful. I don’t feel
I’d be the person I am today without
their help.”
Changing Faces thanks the Royal Society
of Portrait Painters for continuing to
raise awareness of our work.
We rely entirely on donations to
continue supporting and representing
people with disfigurements.
