Sarah Jessica Parker to produce reality show

'Sex and the City' star Sarah Jessica Parker is set to lend her name to an upcoming reality TV competition for aspiring artists.

Pretty Matches, the actress' production firm, has teamed up with the producers behind hit US reality programmes 'Top Chef' and 'Project Runway' for a series that will see 12 visual artists tackle different disciplines - such as sculpting and painting - for the chance to win a gallery show, cash prize and a sponsored tour around the US.
