This poll traditionally has the most votes of all the polls - together with it achieved that over again this year.

This exceptional poll had me on the border of my seat.  The Pb kept changing together with as it drew to a unopen I started to intend it mightiness terminate upwards as a dead heat....and hence it came to be!

Lisa Daria was terminal year's winner of the Painting Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 Day Stickability Shield (which has been won previously yesteryear a number of really good known daily painters).  She has been posting a ikon every hateful solar daytime for 2 together with a one-half years together with has a really practiced argue for why she doesn't desire to stop.

The runner upwards was Glass & Floral II yesteryear Jelaine Faunce (Jelaine Faunce: Contemporary Realism) - which was a completely unlike interpretation of ikon drinking glass containers

The MAM Award for Best Picture of the Year (Natural World) on an Art Blog 2011

We have got a fleck of an awkward province of affairs amongst this category (and having received a rather odd comment, I've amended this department since the master publication to avoid whatever misinterpretation)

David J Teter who nominated Ant by Suzanne Berry let me know that, later his nomination, Suzanne  pointed out to him that she had non taken the photograph used as reference for the painting.  He apologised for his error together with for non checking amongst Suzanne first. I'd similar to give thank you lot both Suzanne together with David for letting me know - I'm really happy to admit that this was a genuine error on David's part.  However as the poll had already started I decided to permit the province of affairs ride together with hence move out what to do if the ikon won!

Which it did.

So here's what I'm going to do.

The number is not that somebody else's photograph has been used as a reference - which of itself is non odd for those ikon the natural world.  Hence the nomination was not ineligible purely because somebody else's photograph had been used as a reference.  The number was purely almost whether or non the ikon was "overly reliant on a photograph taken yesteryear somebody else" ie the criteria I'd pose down.   (This is the dot at which I started looking at an awful lot of photos of ants!)

It seems to me that in that location are iii points which favour allowing the ikon to hold upwards eligible.  First, ants of the same species await pretty similar no affair who takes their photograph; they also seem to have got a pretty express number of positions which they adopt. Second, this is 1 ikon inward a long serial of paintings of bugs yesteryear Suzanne.  Looking at the blueprint together with composition of the paintings inward her serial it's really obvious to me that in that location is painterly interpretation of reference photographs. This is a painter who clearly adds value to a reference photo.  Third the transportation service almost the ikon eulogises almost the colours she's been able to convey out inward the painting.  To me they are a lot to a greater extent than obvious inward this ikon than they are inward photos of similar ants.

Consequently my thought is that the ikon is eligible together with I'm really happy to allow the vote to stand.  As I indicated when choosing a shortlist I ever await at the fine art blogs of the painters get down together with it's my thought that Suzanne is an accomplished painter amongst a really effective approach to portraying bugs!

This is awarded to the pic which got the most votes shape inward the poll.

It’s ever fascinating to encounter how the unlike categories fare inward damage of the number of votes they attract together with how fine art bloggers charge per unit of measurement unlike move when they get down acting as the jury rather than the creative individual whose move is beingness judged.

The ikon which won this yr was inward a commanding Pb - across all categories - from almost vi hours later the poll started all the agency to the end.  I was pretty sure who was going to win on the get down day!

The other placements, according to the number of votes cast, were as follows:
  • Second - Ant yesteryear Suzanne Berry
  • Third - Pacific Passage yesteryear Robin Purcell
I guess the really difficult fought contest inward the Portrait category ended upwards sharing the votes approximately rather equally!  This category has nonetheless won the Best Picture of the Year for the terminal 2 years hence it was variety of dainty that other genres got a await in!
