More recently, Deborah Kerr has used her great talent to brighten the walls of SMH. The outpatient department waiting room was renovated a couple of years ago and Deborah painted a beautiful mural of lupins, insects and hummingbirds.
With its hidden ladybugs, spiders, ants and bees, it's the perfect piece to entertain everyone: older patients can dream about being in their gardens, and children can challenge themselves to find every little creature they can.
Deborah was back over the Christmas holidays to beautify another couple of corners. The main entrance gained some gorgeous sunflowers and chickadees.
And the back entrance was not forgotten, either, when this majestic eagle landed to survey his domain.
Each of these murals bring nature and beauty into our hospital, both necessary for healing and comfort. Congratulations to Deborah for a job well done!
