Portrait of Gifty from Shitima
by Huey Glynn-Jones
© Huey Glynn-Jones
Huey Glynn-Jones is a student who has undertaken foundation studies at Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts, University of the Arts, London and will begin a degree in art history at the Courtauld Institute of Art later this year.
The portrait is of Gifty, a student Glynn-Jones met while travelling in Zambia after leaving his foundation course. The artist volunteered at Shitima school in Kabwe, which serves children from some of the most disadvantaged local areas. Glynn-Jones formed a strong relationship with Gifty, and made some studies of the boy, before completing this painting on returning to the UK.
