Waiting room, Heatherwood Hospital January 2024
Hospital waiting rooms turn up in my sketchbook from time to time, some of them more recognisable than others. In this drawing for instance I dissolved walls and limited colour to the people who were reporting for day surgery procedures or, like me, waiting for nearest and dearest to emerge from treatment rooms.
I haven't decided yet what to place in that empty box in the lower right-hand corner of my sketchbook page. How can a person write a big THANK YOU NHS in such a tiny space?
