‘On a typical evening, my little sister who refused to go to sleep, put her scarf around our father’s (Fred) neck while he sits in front of his desk with a smile. I wanted to record this lovely moment so I decided to draw it. His facial features have strong visual effects, and the different textures of the scarf are interesting to put into a portrait.’
