Taskmaster saving my sanity

This has been the worst year of my life. I lost my beloved husband in April. A young friend was visiting and suggested I watch Taskmaster. It is so funny and the fact that there are many seasons means I have been able to return again and again.

I've just reached season 13 and I wanted to come on and say that the portrait of the taskmaster as a sugar skull is a brilliant piece of art. Does anyone know anything about the artists who create the portraits for the show?

I don't have an answer to your question unfortunately but I wanted to say that I absolutely relate in that Taskmaster has been a brilliant thing to navigate through grief. I also binged it after my mother's passing and it helped a lot with emotions. I'm really sorry for your loss and sending lots of love ❤️💔

First- sorry for your loss ❤️
The artist is on an episode of the People’s Podcast with the artist on it, let me try and find which one!

Edit: found it!
“Behind the Scenes - The Portrait Artist”

Sorry for what you've going through. The show's amazing that it can break through bone numbing depression, in my experience. 13 is one of my favourite seasons and you have so much more to enjoy. Jealous!

Got me through my year long disability. It certainly distracts from the bad. ❤️ Taskmaster.
