Whilst we're closed and working remotely, we’re all doing our best to stay positive and do what we can from home.

Every week, we're setting challenges for our Lightbox team to complete in a bid to bring us together whilst working apart and most importantly, to stay creative.

Last week, we challenged ourselves to recreate famous artworks. Can you guess the artist from our responses? Answers at the end of the blog.
