A panel from Kingston University Nursing Society (Nikki Yun, John Sutherland, Gurlal Jagdev and Daniel Waters) have also selected 15 images to print at a larger format alongside the 251 postcard sized artworks.
“I bet she has a Tecnicolor dreams. The life is beautiful. Take care.”
I have submitted three digital drawings, which was quite experimental, but I am pretty happy with the result. I used Fresh Paint application which gives a good palette of colours and brushes and it is quite fun to use it. I wanted to shaw better side of the life, the inner life of living creatures that I want to believe is nice and simple, full of love and understanding. The titles of each work was carefully chosen to express those feelings.
