Bob Berrisford - portrait by John Tift

Drawing in the Sunderland museum. The exhibition was commissioned by the museum and features older people who are all in care homes in Washington, Tyne and Wear.

From the Sunderland Echo website-
Incredibly-detailed portraits of people living in Washington residential homes have gone on show at Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens to complement the Leonardo da Vinci display.

Portrait artist Andrew Tift visited residential homes over two months last year to record the stories of his sitters, as well as capturing their images for these remarkable drawings, so detailed they look like hi-res photographs.
