Holly and Mark

Extraordinary Portraits – Season 3

In this episode, hospital porter Holly is matched with classicist painter Mark. Holly joined the NHS as her way of giving back to the service that saved her eight-year-old daughter’s life when she was diagnosed with a brain tumour. Award-winning artist Mark Draisey also had a change of career when, in 2016, he reignited his love for portrait art after a 30-year career as a caricaturist and illustrator.
