We were on a journey. The
road did not look easy, twisting
and turning, steep and dark
into unknown territory. There
were many, many casualties.
There was hope in the distance
an end, a release, like an open
space to the sea.
N.F.S.
This painting changed many times
and seemed eventually to be a
concise expression of the problem
we were facing.
(Close-up of the above distance)
Like a mask of protection in the
distance and masks were difficult to
obtain.
A war was going on to find PPE
protection for our nurses. Vast amounts
of money was thrown into bribes, to get
hold of supplies to protect our nurses
and doctors who were fighting on the
front line of this pandemic war.
Nightingale Hospitals were created out
of nowhere to handle the crisis. The
pandemic was spreading like wildfire
across the world.
Lots of people were getting very
worried and trying to look for
something positive. Captain Tom
became a symbol of perseverance
and even made top of the pops
with ‘You will never walk alone’
I Created watercolour

escape into. Some of the
