Portrait of NHS heroes, Giveaway, Gallery opening... 💫
Dear ,
Well, here we are, with everything crossed that the end is in sight for the awful pestilence. I hope this finds you in good health and spirits, looking forwards to the summer. With 3 school-aged children, our house has been a rollercoaster of highs and lows!
NHS Group Portrait
I have missed going to life drawing at my local Cafe Kino, but this group portrait kept me busy:
The format (recreation of an old master) would make a great corporate team portrait. Please share this if you know of anyone who might be interested in commissioning one for their team.

Diversity Project (cont)
Coming from Bristol, I was very moved by the long overdue removal of the statue of slave trader Edward Colston. No amount of context or philanthropy can begin to account for the scale of misery orchestrated by him. For those that think we need to remember him as a piece of history, I agree. But not glorified as a prominent municipal statue. This is my sketched response from the day it happened. Â

The brand new art gallery representing me will finally be opening on 31st August. There are limited spaces available for the Private View on 30th August. you would be very welcome to come, please contact me if you would like a ticket.
