Reaching final of TV show has made me better artist '); '); A PAINTER from Wargrave says she will now take her hobby more seriously after reaching the final of TV’s Landscape Artist of the Year. Shelagh Casebourne was praised by the judges on the show but lost out to a professional in the competition to win a commission worth £10,000. Despite this, she said: “I think the experience has already changed me.” Mrs Casebourne, an amateur oil painter, was one of three competitors — all women — in the final of the latest Sky Arts programme, having qualified through several heats.
