‘Ruth nurse’ is usually a day surgery nurse, but is currently working in intensive care during the Coronavirus pandemic. She originally had no idea that she had been painted, as her daughter reached out to me via Twitter. This painting will be gifted to Ruth nurse or her daughter when the crisis is finally over. It has been very moving to paint this scene, and I would like to thank Ruth nurse’s daughter, Ruth nurse and the amazing team behind her.
