The painting, by Annabel Cullen
(see Pentimento)

As opposed to the drawing by Annabel below, most of this - and certainly the detail - was painted after my operation. I think you can tell and is a mark of her skill as a portraitist. It reflects how I was in September 2014 and how I felt. Thankfully, I am now a great deal better (November 2016) and got half way up Ireland's highest mountain recently.
