Maggie says: "Sashi is a Health Care Assistant working in A&E on the frontline. She told me that she had found the last few months extremely hard, both mentally and physically. It had been difficult juggling the needs of her two young children, aged 2yrs and 4yrs, with the demands of her job. It’s been so hard for her children to share their mummy.

Sashi sent me three photographs to work with. One of them showed her beautiful smile and I was tempted to paint that one. I chose instead to paint a portrait of her wearing her protective mask as, these days, her patients only see her eyes."

Sashi says: "Wow this is amazing........I don’t know what to say! It means so much to me and my family.Thank you!"
