Annabel says: "It was a privilege to paint Nicola and I am delighted that she was happy with the work. It was a signal of love during a horrid time. A time when our nurses held us all together in a thousand ways. Many thanks to them all and especially Nicola."
Nicola says: "I'd just like to say that it's being an absolute pleasure being matched with you for this lovely gesture of a painting! From the very first day you messaged me you've asked me about my role, shown a genuine interest into my nursing background and captured it perfectly in your painting. It's been a nice way of recognising what we are all going through during our careers and something I certainly won't forget. Thank you for making a difference, I love what you've done with the painting and am honoured that you chose to represent me in this way - thank you so so much, I will always treasure it."
