It's a stunner David, I really like how you've painted this.

Thanks Heather - as it's a few years since I painted it I'm not sure what the process was. I'm just trying a dog portrait on Yupo now so interesting to see how it goes.

An impressive unusual approach.

A blast from the past David. I like your unusual style of painting, which works so well.

Beautifully done, it captures so effectively a moment in time.

This is mixed media on Yupo . It is based on a very old photo probably taken about 100 years ago of my father and some others getting ready to go to school. I have only done a few Yupo works and this was done several years ago. 7x11"
