Leah Edwards is one of the artists and already runs workshops for patients and staff at the hospital.
“I run dog life drawing and this is something that I’ve done at the Children’s Hospital with their therapy dogs and so I thought it would be lovely to do a design based around the therapy dogs,” she said.
“I’ve gone for very bold and simple design with high pigment blue and yellow. I draw in a continuous line so they’re simple line drawings.”
Artist Jonathan Wilkinson was involved with the previous two art trails and was keen to apply again.
“I’m an illustrator, primarily painting and digital painting, doing urban landscapes and buildings with a tinge of nostalgia.
“This project is more of an imaginary landscape because the shape and contours of the lion and lioness demanded a slightly different approach.
“It’s more of a mysterious landscape that features recognisable buildings and motifs, a bit of a greatest hits of Sheffield.
“It’s hand painted which is nice because I don’t always get to do that but with a kind of punchy Looney Tunes illustrative look.”
