Extraordinary Portraits

S03E06 Holly and Mark

This episode features hospital porter Holly, who finds a connection with classicist painter Mark. Holly chose to work for the NHS as a tribute to the life-saving care her eight-year-old daughter received during her battle with a brain tumor. Mark Draisey, an award-winning artist, also experienced a career shift; after spending three decades as a caricaturist and illustrator, he rediscovered his passion for portrait art in 2016. Together, they navigate their unique journeys and explore the impact of their art and service on their lives.
