During the Covid Pandemic I painted many portraits of NHS workers. These were then exhibited as part of the Peak District Artisan’s exhibition ‘A Year of Wondering’ in May 2021. Below are two of the portraits, Dr Shivani Baynham as she was working in her GP’s office and Dr Alex Pavitt, as he was working in intensive care in Oxfordshire.
In February this year I was chosen to paint a portrait for the Stepping Hill Covid Commemoration Exhibition. I painted Louise Mulligan, who is the manager of the mortuary at the hospital. This painting was part of the exhibition which was held in March and April this year at Stockport War Memorial Art Gallery. The exhibition was a great success and was featured on ITV news and in medical publications like the British Medical Journal and The Nursing Times. The twelve portraits which were commissioned are to be put on permanent display in Stepping Hill Hospital.
