Oil on canvas. After several meetings and in-depth conversations, it was decided that the portrait should acknowledge Trudi’s cancer journey and the transformative experience at the Christie art group by featuring a lighthouse. Trudi had a long relationship with North Wales and its coast as she had holidayed there regularly as a child and continued to do so. Talacre beach was visited for the photoshoot. The journey allowed the artist and subject the opportunity to cement a firm relationship. Talacre was a great choice as the lighthouse there is easily identified and many of the people who watched the work in progress at Maggie’s knew the resort well and were pleased to recognise it as they met the artist and heard about Trudi’s story. While painting Trudi’s portrait, as happened with all the paintings, viewers would speculate about the personality of the subject. Many people would say, ‘She looks like she’s a strong woman’, and indeed she is. One thing that was also regularly commented on was Trudi’s ‘English rose’ or ‘strawberries and cream’ complexion. Trudi was delighted by these comments, particularly as she was so unhappy about her scarring. She would often repeat them to friends and family who came to see the progress of the painting saying, “It’s all natural! No make-up!”. The genuine joy and pride that she radiated at these times, in contrast to the woman who had first come to Maggie’s hiding her face under a hood, in the view of the artist, made the project worthwhile and hugely substantiated the assertion that portraiture can be a powerful tool in arts for health practice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569837983786-9BC5LKTRM3ZOXHCEOYC8/Bern+small.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Bern', 2017. Oil on canvas. Lucy painted Bern in late summer and autumn of 2017. A large series of photographs were taken by the artist with a studio set-up, in her studio at Lime Arts, in the grounds of Central Manchester NHS Trust. Bern and Lucy had been ‘virtual’ friends online for more than two years so was aware of how much his support of socialist politics played a part in his interaction with the world. Bern often wrote poetry to share his humour, thoughts and experiences, in conversation with the artist, it was decided that lines from one of his poems would help to share Bern’s wider identity with the world. He also decided that he would wear a specially commissioned eye-patch promoting his favourite Mancunian band, The Moods. The image that would be worked-up to produce the portrait was decided upon in discussion with Bern and some of his siblings. Lucy will often call upon family members or friends of subjects she hasn’t spent much time with to help narrow down which image best captures their personality. The image that was decided upon was chosen because it captured Bern’s affable personality and the dignity that he maintains despite the physical degradation that he has had to endure. Bern and his family visited Maggie’s regularly during the painting of his portrait. They were hugely excited by their involvement with the project, documenting the experience with numerous of photos which they promoted widely on social media. Over the duration of the project the artist has developed relationships with all of Bern’s siblings and is convinced that their practical and emotional support has been invaluable in maintaining Bern’s mental health. They have been hugely involved in the project, from the initial photo-shoot, through to curating the exhibition, celebrating its opening, and attending numerous engagement events. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569837996889-J2C9IJWE5GL9B8QQKCWH/Annie+small.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Annie', 2017. Oil on canvas. Following several informal conversations and the recording of a long ‘getting to know you’ audio interview, Annie decided that she would like the portrait to reflect her core values which centred around social responsibility and giving back to the community. This would be illustrated by locating the portrait in the Maggie’s Centre itself, with its unique wooden structure visible and recognisable, and Annie would be pictured holding a cup of tea in one of the centre’s hand thrown cups. This element would serve to illustrate the ‘tea and sympathy’ or ‘tea and a giggle’ that is offered by Annie and the team of volunteers to all of Maggie’s visitors. The artist was particularly happy with Annie’s involvement with the project and the choice of this setting for the portrait. It allowed the subsequent exhibition to talk about and celebrate the invaluable support offered by Maggie’s and raise awareness amongst exhibition audiences of what this relatively little-known charity offers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569840114302-CKX4UNQGNJSD9YU8OP9S/Nigel+small.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Nigel', 2018. Oil on canvas. The artist met Nigel when he attended the second day of the Manchester Science Festival 2017 Facing Out Conference at The Whitworth (See blog). The event had been advertised at The Christie’s Head and Neck clinic and Nigel had picked up a flyer and come along. He already had an interest in how creative activities can bring people together and have positive benefits to health and well-being as he worked as arts development lead at his local Community Volunteer Support service. His job had seen him develop very successful community festivals and creative groups. He was very impressed by the conference and was interested in the wider project and perhaps becoming a portraiture subject. After the conference, Nigel came to Maggie’s with his wife to talk about what becoming a portraiture subject would entail. From Lucy’s point of view it was interesting to talk to Nigel about the project as he asked questions with a facilitator’s insight. He agreed to go ahead and suggested that his portrait should depict his long-running membership of a local veterans five-a-side football team that he had been a member of for twenty-five years. When Nigel was receiving cancer treatment, he had had to step back from the team so, when he managed to make his comeback, it was a significant marker on his road to recovery. Nigel’s love of football and having an active lifestyle played another significant role in his cancer experience. It was because of wanting to be able to continue to play football and swim unimpeded that Nigel chose not to have a magnetically attached prosthetic nose, but to go for reconstruction. Nigel’s reconstruction involved the use of a free flap that was harvested from his lower arm to reconstruct an area around his upper lip and cartilage for his nasal bone that was taken from his ribs. Although the site of the cancer was successful covered, unfortunately, radiotherapy caused the nasal reconstruction to collapse down and so Nigel’s nose was left sloping inwards. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569839942007-4AYGLW2MP0KTMY28RHV6/Graeme+1.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Graeme I', 2018. Oil on linen. This portrait shows Graeme as he looked when Lucy first met him. His right eye has been removed, as has a large amount of the surrounding bone and tissue, including sections of the nose, right cheek and forehead. The flap covering this area was taken from a donor site on his thigh. Graeme also had nerve damage to the right side of his face which affected the movement of his month (specifically smiling) to some extent. You can see a marked depression in his forehead and significant reduction in the length of the nose, such that the bottom of the nose was parallel with the cheeks. This meant that functionality for breathing was impaired and, less obviously a problem, he wasn’t able to wear glasses. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569839930409-3LKTUF2PEO3Q3DTETC52/Graeme+2.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Graeme II', 2018. Oil on linen. Prior to this portrait, Graeme had decided to go ahead and follow his surgeon’s advice and have further reconstructive surgery. A titanium plate was used to cover the area of bone loss in his forehead and some local flaps were drawn from the cheeks to bring the nose further forward and ease breathing. As perhaps his expression shows, at this point, Graeme was very pleased with the surgery. Unfortunately, between portraits II and III, the surgery began to cause problems and Graeme was rushed into hospital to have emergency surgery. The previous operation had caused tissue fluid to gather around the implant which meant that surrounding tissue became no longer viable. The emergency operation drew some of Graeme’s scalp forward to replace the damaged area and try and save the functioning forehead flap and new nasal flaps. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569839923567-GR1NQ51VTOC02DV83B7O/Graeme+3.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Graeme III', 2018. Oil on linen. As the time of photographing for this portrait, Graeme was dismayed and indignant at the turn of events that had led to the frightening position he was in now: areas of his face that had previously been stable, if lacking in some aspects of functionality, seemed to be breaking down. There were areas on the nose and forehead that were becoming holes, and the remaining forehead flap appeared to be thinning as if its previously health blood supply was constricted. The artist was shocked by Graeme’s worsening appearance and worried about whether his seemingly inexhaustible levels of resilience would, this time, run dry. He was equally angry with his surgeon and with himself for going ahead with this ill-fated surgery. He looked back at the first portrait and wished he hadn’t embarked on the surgery. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569839899623-4MPEGTH5J2SFC087118D/Graeme+4.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Graeme IV', 2018. Oil on linen. When the photographs for this portrait were taken, the titanium plate across Graeme’s forehead had been removed, as had his nose and the lower half of the original flap from his thigh. It had been decided that the only way for Graeme to move forward was to have a prosthesis made to cover the lost areas, including his right eye. This portrait shows what Graeme had had covered with a dressing for three months. He hadn’t showed his face as it now was to anyone beyond his family and medical team up until this point. It is possible to see three magnets that were bedding in around his nasal aperture which would hold the prosthesis in place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569839899337-VVIOROIDIGI7OZJQP50D/Graeme+5.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Graeme V', 2018. Oil on linen. Graeme’s final portrait shows him with his prosthesis in place. It was painted in the final days of the production phase. Graeme, for as long as the artist had known him had said that he had wanted to keep his nose, ‘It’s a strange nose, but it’s mine’. That wasn’t to happen but, when Graeme actually got his prothesis, he felt that it was a very positive change. That was certainly the case in relation to how he felt about how his appearance in the previous few months, but he also saw it as an improvement on his appearance in the first portrait. He was particularly happy that he could now walk down the street without drawing people’s attention and gaze. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569838015322-6PX62275YIIWEJHX58NE/Damir+small.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Damir', 2019. Oil on canvas. The photographs for the portrait were taken early in the morning at The Christie directly before Damir embarked on a day of surgery. Damir is wearing his surgical scrubs and loops, the magnifying spectacles that allow microsurgery to be undertaken. These loops were bought for Damir by his parents many years ago and so hold an emotive significance for him. He uses them in his day to day practise. This particular image was chosen because the artist felt that his expression spoke of Damir’s deep commitment to do his best work for his patients and the time, planning, effort and sacrifice that enables that to happen. Visitors to the Maggie’s Centre regularly commented about Damir’s portrait, ‘Doesn’t he look kind?’. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1587404716639-HWZEWXLIP6KNY44JHQ3Q/Dab+Hands Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489227106489-2XCQZKWPF4IHNS5CPX0Y/Sarian+Web.png Creative Health Folio - Sarian, Willow and Aspirin This painting celebrates one of the oldest medicines known to man. Extracts from willow bark have been known to help alleviate headaches, pains and fevers since antiquity. Willow was used as a medicine by ancient civilisations like the Sumerians and Egyptians. The Ebers papyrus, an ancient Eqyptian medical text, refers to willow as an anti-inflammatory or pain reliever, as does Hippocrates. The treatment was developed into a stable pharmaceutical drug at the turn of the twentieth century and became known as 'aspirin'. Today, aspirin is often taken in low doses to help prevent strokes and heart attacks. Sarian uses aspirin as a pain killer. She is pictured with a curtain of weeping willow foliage in a nearby park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489227090410-4AW45Z6WRHD73NC90CR1/Sarah+Web.png Creative Health Folio - Sarah, Soil and Tacrolimus Sarah is pictured holding a bowl of soil. In the 1980s in Japan, a bacterium was discovered in a sample of soil. It was called Streptomyces Tsukubaensis. It was found to have immunosuppressant properties, and was developed into the drug Tacrolimus. As a teenager, Sarah was diagnosed as having type 1 diabetes, which eventually led to her having a pancreatic transplant. Tacrolimus helps prevent Sarah's body rejecting her new organ. During her transplant and recovery, Sarah used art to help her cope with the anxiety and stress. She created painting about her experience and even crocheted a woollen pancreas to help her focus on her healing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489227041046-QI9MBK1ZLH93J6AV7EPZ/John+Web.png Creative Health Folio - John, Kale and Lutein John has Age-Related Macular Degeneration which affects his vision. He is painted here with curly kale. Kale is a green leafy vegetable with one of the highest concentrations of the carotenoid nutrients lutein and zeaxanthin, which research suggests are beneficial to eye health and together with other nutrients may play a part in delaying the progression of AMD. You can see the atomic structure of lutein hiding among the kale leaves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1616785435139-C1G809FJEZL84K0HMZA4/Ingrid%2BWeb.jpg Creative Health Folio - Ingrid, Sweet Clover and Warfarin Ingrid has a common heart condition called atrial fibrillation, a heart rhythm disturbance. Her treatment prevents blood clotting ans is called Warfarin. The history of Warfarin is fascinating. In the 1920s in the USA, a herd of cattle suddenly started to haemorrhage after minor procedures like horn removal. The problem was eventually traced back to the feed that they were given, a silage containing large amounts of a wild flower called sweet clover. When the sweet clover rotted down and reacted with fungi, it spontaneously created a natural anticoagulant. In the 1940s this chemical compound was isolated and synthesised and was eventually patented as Warfarin. Interestingly, in America, sweet clover is known as honey clover because of it's sweet smell which is craeted by the same compound that acts as the medicine's precursor and also gives us the beautiful aroma of freshly cut grass. Sweet clover isn't a British native wild flower but became naturalised in the 1800s, particularly along routes used where grain was imported, including along the Manchester Ship Canal where it can still be found today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489227073785-PTNTY42CWSEEQ5BC93LH/James+Web.png Creative Health Folio - James, Rutile and Titanium James is pictured with a background of rutile. Rutile is the main ore from which titanium is derived. Titanium is a remarkable metal with many unusual qualities that serve to make it particularly useful in the modern world. It is used for many medical applications because of its high bio-compatibility: it is non-toxic and is not readily rejected by the body. Titanium has the highest strength-to-density ratio of any metallic element and is not magnetic so it's use is not problematic when MRI scans are required. In James' case it is used as the cover for his pacemaker. Modern pacemakers use cutting-edge technologies to monitor the heart along with their usual job of regulating the heart beat. They can transmit a signal that can be read by a receiver in the patient's home and be sent via the internet to hospital staff for monitoring. Titanium is also useful because as titanium dioxide it makes a very stable white pigment. It is known as Titanium White and was used for the highlights in this painting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489227119828-S6M1R1GBW52SZBG5TZZL/sylvia+web.png Creative Health Folio - Sylvia and Gold Lucy was amazed when Rheumatology staff said, "Do you know that we inject people with gold here?"! Gold is a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis which has been used since the 1930s. It dampens down the immune system that becomes over-active with this condition and can cause joint damage. Sylvia has suffered with rheumatoid arthritis since her forties but despite this and problems with her vision, she is a keen believer in the benefits of crafting to one's well-being. She is a treasure! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489232299227-PJ1Z05ROJ69RAVRANIC6/Steve.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Stephen with a Magnifier’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 Stephen Golding is a well known member of staff at MREH. He works as a dispensing optician. He is painted with one of the many illuminated magnifiers that he can recommend for people with low vision. The standard vision colour range is shown within the magnifier. Outside is how someone with deuteranopea sees. Dalton who first identified colour-blindness, was a deuteranope. This was confirmed when DNA from his eyes, which he had left to science after his death, was tested 150 years later in 1995. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489166993441-G4DCEUU59CG6PCEZW6JF/doreen.JPG Creative Health Folio - ‘The Lady with The Pearl Earrings’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 This portrait is of one of the patients who enjoyed watching Lucy paint while she was waiting for an appointment. Look200 was an ‘Arts for Heath’ project which offered patients and staff an opportunity to relax and perhaps forget about their worries while they followed the development of the work. Lucy had great fun discussing the science behind the project with patients and staff. She learnt a lot from them and passed those ideas on. Learning something new is a great way to boost your feeling of well-being – the aim of the project! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489166771263-1PT9P6SDLJRCULNKGW91/joana.JPG Creative Health Folio - ‘Joana and the Big Booby’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 A portrait of the artist Joana Vasconcelos with her brightly coloured crocheted sculpture, ‘Big Booby’. Lucy chose to paint Vasconcelos, who was exhibiting at Manchester Art Gallery as work on Look200 began, because her multicoloured artworks were perfect for helping to show how a wide range of colours are perceived differently by people with a colour vision deficiency (colour-blindness). This image has an area painted as it would be seen by someone with Deuteranopia, which is sometimes called green-blindness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489166808342-175B23O39GDQOS4I6ZSB/Marie.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Marie with Notes’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 Marie works in the hospital’s Clinic H. She is lovely and friendly and well known by many patients and staff. Lucy asked to paint her to try and capture that positivity. The circles in the painting make reference to Ishihara tests that are used to check for colour-blindness. The greenish circles describe the colour vision of people with Deuteranopea or Protanopea, which together make up the disorders that referred to as red/green colour-blindness. Also depicted is the much rarer form called Tritanopea (the pinkish areas). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489167020381-UVJHH8RI9KPSF8HZY7WL/John.JPG Creative Health Folio - ‘Gentleman with a Gold Tooth’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 This portrait is of one of the patients who Lucy was fortunate enough to meet on a lovely sunny day when he had just been discharged after successful treatment. He was very relieved and happy and Lucy has tried to capture that feeling. Look200 celebrates some of the research into vision that has happened in Manchester. The colour difference in areas of this portrait relate to John Dalton’s contribution – he was the first person to identify colour-blindness as a disorder. He lived and worked in the city when the hospital was opening in 1814. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489232834358-ZNQ5VEWLM0P9IOBXCPP9/Maria.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Maria with a Teacup’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 This is a portrait of Maria Balshaw, director of both Manchester Art Gallery and Whitworth Art Gallery, the hospital’s close neighbour. It was painted over ‘Culture Shots Week’ when the city’s museums and galleries come to the hospitals. During Maria’s directorship strong links have been forged between Central Manchester NHS Trust and Manchester’s cultural institutions. Arts for Health programmes are delivered directly to patients and have been found to be a great success. Maria is depicted with her favourite painting from the Manchester Art Gallery’s collection, ‘Queer’ by Derek Jarman.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489167128264-ZSY8MKI95JGPI3Q3KUDY/poppies.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Dalton’s Poppies’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 The poppy in this painting acts as a pie chart with each section, denoted as red, green and blue in the border, showing the prevalence in the UK of each of the three most common forms of colour blindness. The poppy in the painting makes reference to the fact that 2014 is not just the bicentenary of Manchester Royal Eye Hospital but also the centenary year of the start of World War 1. The hospital played a significant part in treating soldiers returning from the front with eye injuries sustained in the fighting and during gas attacks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489224568573-8JKWR4998V03LMA8SFLV/Rob+ipRGC.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Professor Rob Lucas: Monochrome ipRGC Vision’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 This painting describes some of Prof. Lucas and his team’s research into the newly discovered eye cells known as Intrinsically Photoreceptive Retinal Ganglion Cells (ipRGCs). Their experiments suggest that these cells contribute to how we perceive luminescence. Unlike cone cells, ipRGCs aren’t great for edge finding or placing objects in space, but they can help us recognise the minute differences in brightness that occur when light is reflected off objects helping us to see their shape, in this case the subtly undulating surface of Rob’s face. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489224783382-8QXVTOX89OUTH2Z3E7IY/Rob+Standard.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Professor Rob Lucas: Monochrome Standard Vision’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 This painting of Professor Lucas is a monochrome black and white portrait which simulates standard vision minus colour. The painting acts as a reference point to allow viewers to make a comparison with the other two paintings in the series. These are altered in order to represent the elements of vision created by different cells of the eye, cones and ipRGCs. The existence of the hitherto unknown photo-receptors, later named IpRGCs, which are now the focus of Lucas’s work, was first recognised by the professor’s early research of 1999. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489224542867-YENJ13B71T9RUTAXUDE1/Rob+Cone.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Professor Rob Lucas: Monochrome Cone Vision’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 This painting is a black and white image that simulates some of the properties of vision created by the eye’s cone cells which react to light and create our daytime colour vision. The colour has been removed to show some of the other image qualities that these cells transmit to the brain. These cells help us find the edges of objects and place objects in space. However they are not so good at recognising the subtle differences in luminescence (brightness) created when light is reflected off surfaces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489164382535-2WE9MLIJGGKYY9QTFTKP/ClarissaClarissaInverse+1.jpg Creative Health Folio - Clarissa/Clarissa Inverse 1.

He works as a dispensing optician. He is painted with one of the many illuminated magnifiers that he can recommend for people with low vision. The standard vision colour range is shown within the magnifier. Outside is how someone with deuteranopea sees. Dalton who first identified colour-blindness, was a deuteranope. This was confirmed when DNA from his eyes, which he had left to science after his death, was tested 150 years later in 1995. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489224568573-8JKWR4998V03LMA8SFLV/Rob+ipRGC.jpg Creative Health Folio - ‘Professor Rob Lucas: Monochrome ipRGC Vision’ Acrylic on canvas, 2014 This painting describes some of Prof. Lucas and his team’s research into the newly discovered eye cells known as Intrinsically Photoreceptive Retinal Ganglion Cells (ipRGCs). Their experiments suggest that these cells contribute to how we perceive luminescence. Unlike cone cells, ipRGCs aren’t great for edge finding or placing objects in space, but they can help us recognise the minute differences in brightness that occur when light is reflected off objects helping us to see their shape, in this case the subtly undulating surface of Rob’s face. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489227106489-2XCQZKWPF4IHNS5CPX0Y/Sarian+Web.png Creative Health Folio - Sarian, Willow and Aspirin This painting celebrates one of the oldest medicines known to man. Extracts from willow bark have been known to help alleviate headaches, pains and fevers since antiquity. Willow was used as a medicine by ancient civilisations like the Sumerians and Egyptians. The Ebers papyrus, an ancient Eqyptian medical text, refers to willow as an anti-inflammatory or pain reliever, as does Hippocrates. The treatment was developed into a stable pharmaceutical drug at the turn of the twentieth century and became known as 'aspirin'. Today, aspirin is often taken in low doses to help prevent strokes and heart attacks. Sarian uses aspirin as a pain killer. She is pictured with a curtain of weeping willow foliage in a nearby park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1583330677212-XI2T1FU2YMRKHPCIVB8H/Graeme+1-5+small.jpg Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1569840103536-JNV2MZMTNBDTVUQRVK7H/Trudi+small.jpg Creative Health Folio - 'Trudi', 2018. Oil on canvas. After several meetings and in-depth conversations, it was decided that the portrait should acknowledge Trudi’s cancer journey and the transformative experience at the Christie art group by featuring a lighthouse. Trudi had a long relationship with North Wales and its coast as she had holidayed there regularly as a child and continued to do so. Talacre beach was visited for the photoshoot. The journey allowed the artist and subject the opportunity to cement a firm relationship. Talacre was a great choice as the lighthouse there is easily identified and many of the people who watched the work in progress at Maggie’s knew the resort well and were pleased to recognise it as they met the artist and heard about Trudi’s story. While painting Trudi’s portrait, as happened with all the paintings, viewers would speculate about the personality of the subject. Many people would say, ‘She looks like she’s a strong woman’, and indeed she is. One thing that was also regularly commented on was Trudi’s ‘English rose’ or ‘strawberries and cream’ complexion. Trudi was delighted by these comments, particularly as she was so unhappy about her scarring. She would often repeat them to friends and family who came to see the progress of the painting saying, “It’s all natural! No make-up!”. The genuine joy and pride that she radiated at these times, in contrast to the woman who had first come to Maggie’s hiding her face under a hood, in the view of the artist, made the project worthwhile and hugely substantiated the assertion that portraiture can be a powerful tool in arts for health practice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489224568573-8JKWR4998V03LMA8SFLV/Rob+ipRGC.jpg Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1616783227480-RV1DJA1DOH1VRGQ4ZLT6/Dab%252BHands%252BPoster%252Bcrop%252B%2525281%252529.jpg Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1616783325595-SZEZ88LCDU5EEG76EB4I/Trudi%2Bsmall.jpg Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1616783407428-D8MSSF3HN35DK3LV972F/Steve.jpg Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1616783586870-1HLJT1LC83LS7HR1FIEI/Beth%252C%2BHidden.jpg Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1489227106489-2XCQZKWPF4IHNS5CPX0Y/Sarian+Web.png Creative Health Folio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58c28410440243d83e8d5a32/1587384482882-WD0CNFJ7KPNIQJQFNUDG/Dab%252BHands%252BPoster%252Bcrop.jpg Creative Health Folio - Dab Hands Dab Hands, as Lucy’s current project, is a work in progress.
