Here's a large painting that I finished earlier this year.

 Professor Richard Ross and his family sat both as a group and as individuals.

 

These family portraits are a fantastic thing to do. Here is a record of five people and a dog, their house, an imagined view of Derbyshire including Winn Hill in the Peak District and Richard's allotment and bee hives.

I hope this family portrait will outlive us all. It's painted in very traditional oil paint on canvas, with egg tempera to make the tones subtle and washes of varnished colour to enrich the hues.
