Having painted out the previous attempt of the John Calvin Christian school group, I am much happier with this one even though I can see that the head sizes need to be adjusted. Instead of having everyone in a single row (as in the photo) I have moved the children in front which means I can now paint them at a better scale which isn’t so squeezy and it now fits in with the other paintings too.

Tony made time from his busy schedule yesterday to come and check out his portrait. He is well know locally for his dedication to the community through his voluntary work. So far this year he has put in over 600 hours of voluntary work, good on yer Tony.

Primed for a restart.
