A Ukrainian refugee has decorated the windows of a Welwyn women's fashion boutique with hand-drawn artwork.

SuSu owner Amy Thomson and husband Robert host a Ukrainian refugee and through that are involved with the Welwyn Garden City Facebook group ‘Supporting Sponsors and Hosts of Ukrainian Guests’.

Amy saw a post by Hanna Kosh looking for customers for her beautiful hand-drawn window art and contacted her.

Hanna has now decorated SuSu’s shop windows with fanciful meadow flowers, butterflies and bees using specialist white pens.

Hanna said: "It's hard to believe that just four months ago I left Kiev with my three daughters and what few belongings we could fit into our Mini Cooper for a journey through Europe which ended in Welwyn.

"In Kiev, I worked as a lawyer, but have always done art and design on the side and dreamt of being able to make a career out of it.

"Now here in the UK, I have the opportunity to do just that.

"I am so happy and grateful to Amy for the opportunity to show my work and to the people of Welwyn and Hertfordshire for helping me and my family settle in."

Social media posts of pictures of the shop windows have gained much traction.

SuSu customers and Welwyn residents and visitors enjoy this original and playful glass art display, which SuSu says they will keep on the windows through the summer.
