You all did such a fantastic job of turning the gallery blue at the beginning of April that I thought we could fill the gallery with tributes to all the other heroes keeping the nation going during the last week of the month. There is a little news story here https://www.painters-online.co.uk/news/paint-fitting-tributes-to-our-unsung-heroes/ and an e-shot going out later today. Let's give a big PaintersOnline thank you to the refuse collectors, police officers, farmers, truck driver, mechanics, shop keepers and more!

Excellent Alan! If you put this on the gallery I would happily print it off for my window.

hi this is my tribute to those keyworkers, keeping our electric services going, along with all those other utilities, well done all of you, and the biggest thankyou to you all.

This is a great idea, and lovely to see the tributes in the Gallery, but I must admit I'm finding this very difficult without the models!     Did hope to sketch the bin lorry but I missed it.
