I am extremely proud to be part of this permanent online exhibition on Google arts and Culture made possible by award winning artist Tom Croft in partnership with Google arts and culture and Paintings in Hospitals.
The virtual exhibition is to put faces on the healthcare heroes who are risking their lives every single day, keeping us safe during this difficult time.
During lockdown, like many people, I felt extremely helpless and anxious. When I found out about this project I wanted to be part of it, but I hesitated for a long time because portraits is not what I do. I managed to get over myself eventually and painted a portrait of my friend Professor Janice Tsui. She is an amazing person and she inspires me with her dedication to her work.
Thank you for giving me permission to submit your portrait for this exhibition. 💕
Check out the virtual exhibition in the link below. My submission is under the section ‘Personality in PPE’

Sounds good. I agree with “letting it seed in your mind”. It’s like once the sketch is done in your head, all you have to do is etch it…

Yes I found some purpose during covid lockdown and I needed that ❤️

I’ve got a new idea for portraits, I’m letting it seed in mind to see if I want to follow through with it
