FUNdraising and The Big Draw Maggi Hambling, Andrew Logan and James Lloyd were amongst the artists with work in the National Portrait Gallery who contributed drawings to the show. Less well known for their portraits, indeed not known for their drawings but for their writing were contributors Willy Russell and Philip Pullman*. Nick Garland, Piers Gough and Posy Simmonds were others who looked in the mirror, picked up a pen (or pencil) and committed themselves to paper. Josie Reed, director of the Chapel Row Gallery and a trustee of the Campaign for Drawing, said, “This was a rare chance to see and buy first rate self-portrait drawings, desirable, collectable works, some by well-known some by not so well-known artists, and at the same time help a really good organisation”.
