With the sad news that the great Tony Hart has passed away it got me wondering whether anybody reading this blog ever got their own piece of art shown during the Gallery section of one of Tony’s shows. Â I remember drawing a picture once intended for the Gallery, but I don’t think I ever got as far as sending it in, so it definitely never got shown to the nation.
If anybody reading this did get a picture shown, then I’d love it if you could let us all know what you got for it appearing by posting a comment to this survey, as Tony always said “whilst we can’t returned any of your pictures, there is a prize for any that are shown“. Â I heard it was a pack of colouring pencils, but it would be interesting to know for sure.

I had a picture of a satellite in orbit chosen. They showed it upside down. I got £2.50 in book tokens and some bookmarks. I still have the book I bought with it next to my computer now.
Cool, nice to hear from someone who got a picture shown on TV! Shame it was shown upside down though. Funny it was book tokens as the prize, I would have expected something a bit more art related.
