"Painting someone, you see a new side of them, you see which bits stand out to you as the artist."
As part of our Pride Month series, author and presenter Jamie Windust sat down in our archives with artist Flo Perry. They discuss Flo's love of painting portraits, how her artistic identity connects to her LGBTQ+ identity, and what Pride means to her.
Jamie and Flo also chat about the portrait of Flo taken by Martin Parr, which features in our Gallery's Collection. You can discover more LGBTQ+ history by heading to our website: npg.org.uk/collections/search/group/1342/LGBT+
