A montage of portraits created during the live sessions of SKY Portrait Artist of the week, on Sundays April – June 2020.

Due to the numbers of people infected and dying by Coronavirus increasing at a rapid rate, the government put the UK into lockdown on 23 March. It has been a very difficult time for everyone. During this lockdown I focused on drawings, paintings, photography and creating videos. I like to draw on my Iphone, as it is instant and the colours can be as vibrant as you want or as subtle as you like. I have created a few digital paintings and they are posted under the DIGITAL ARTWORK page.

In April I learnt from a friend that SKY TV was holding weekly live portrait sessions during the lockdown. I began to paint every Sunday and have created several portraits in oil. Click to see all portraits from the COVID-19 page.
