Zygmunt Krukowski, consultant surgeon, and Pat Smith, associate specialist in obstetrics and gynaecology, from northeast Scotland, are among the stars of an exhibition at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary until 2 May.
Mark Moynihan, a recent graduate of Gray’s School of Art in Aberdeen, was commissioned by Grampian Hospitals Art Trust to paint nine members of staff from NHS Grampian and a member of the Scottish Ambulance Service.
The artist set out to portray each of the subjects in an honest and straightforward way. He kept the background of the paintings empty so that the viewer’s attention is drawn to the subjects’ hands, face, and clothing.
