Powerful Portraits

No other genre of art is quite as intimate, personal or, arguably, as important as portraiture. Portraiture is the artistic expression of an individual's appearance and personality. The magic of portraiture is in its ability to capture not only the physical, but also the psychological characteristics of a person. The Bluethumb Art Prize 2022 saw an incredible number of portraiture uploaded to Bluethumb, and this curation is in celebration of those artworks and many more. You'll find our current top 10 portraiture artists within, alongside dozens of other incredible portraiture artists.
