In mid 2020, during New Zealand's Covid-19 lockdown, I was contacted with the opportunity to paint an official portrait of Lady June Hillary.
The portrait was unveiled on October 2020 in the Welcome Swallow Gallery, and will be added to the national archive as part of the Hillary collection at the Auckland Museum.
