The seventh heat of the eleventh season from the Battersea Arts Centre in London sees 9 artists creating portraits of journalist/broadcaster Martha Kearney, designer/writer/presenter Kevin McCloud and former model/activist Heather Mills.

Nine artists compete in a portrait challenge, capturing likenesses of musician Self Esteem, model Emma Thynn, and surgeon Dr. Karan Rajan at London's Battersea Arts Centre in the season's final heat.

In the semi-final, eight artists are given a choice of colours and textures to feature in their portraits of Joely Richardson.

The final of the eleventh season moves to a film studio in London with the three finalists creating a dual portrait of married actors Andy Serkis and Lorraine Ashbourne in costume. The judges will select the seasons winner.

The eleventh season Portrait Artist of The Year winner undertakes a £10,000 prize commission of television presenter Lorraine Kelly for the Scottish National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh.
