Lynne Gant’s playful and colourful underwater scenes were commissioned for an area of theatre where children recover after their operations. Lynne’s artwork draws on her skills as an illustrator and mural artist. The edge of the painting suggests a porthole through which the viewer can see a magical imagined world of golden-haired mermaids and funny-faced sea creatures. Staff are able to use the images to distract children who are distressed or in pain.
