Ahead of lockdown in 2020, Culture Perth and Kinross' marketing team had a brilliant idea. What if we could recreate the works of art in our collections using only Microsoft Paint? And thus #DougieDraws was born, paying homage to the collections we look after. We've handpicked some of our favourite works that #DougieDraws has created so far, and placed them alongside the original works, so you can compare masterpieces!
