 I arranged a show at the RK Burt Gallery on the Southbank in London in 2003, where officers from the tough Southwark Police

came for tea and cookies. They posed for me and talked about their lives.  As I painted, it was apparent how unique each of the officers is,

in the facts of their varied responsibilities on the job, and in their private lives.  The installation was purposely bare: hanging each portrait by

clips on the wall, in an accumulating group, was an event in itself as the public watched the gallery filled with the images of "twelve good men."
