An artwork dedicated to the brave frontliners and essential workers in this pandemic – my modern take on the Greek All-healing Goddess, Panacea. Through the portrait I drew, an original character, I’d like to express gratitude to the heroes – those who risked their lives to prevent the virus from further spreading.
Although my body of work tends to touch on high fantasy themes, I included one artwork that would serve as a remembrance of the trials everybody had to face amidst the pandemic. With my positive and hopeful outlook, I chose the subject to be a nurse – an angel of life.
