About the painting:

“When working on paintings in the studio, particularly figurative works, I like to do several studies beforehand. It really helps to get a feel of the face and iron out any mistakes before completing a final piece. Oftentimes these studies are just left in the studio. However, this year particularly, I have enjoyed working on them a bit longer and turning them into something that would be worthy of showing in an exhibition. I love seeing the studies by Sir Alfred John Munnings KCVO Kt PRA RI (1878 – 1959) of equestrians and the like. Studies are a great insight into the way an artist works.” Kieron
