"Egyptian Heads"

Oil on canvas

This work was painted for the gala evening that took place at The Dorchester Hotel (London). It was a charity event that raised money for underprivileged children in Egypt. The painting was sold at auction and all the proceeds went towards the charity.

The artist brought out the weather-beaten look that exists in many of the men-folk in Egypt, and one can see in contrast to this, the warm and kindly nature of each of the characters portrayed.
