It's been 2 years since the last family portrait was done. Since then I have added another grandchild and our beautiful 12 year old dog. It's 111cm x 76cm. I have lightly gessoed over the pencil drawing so it doesn't muddy up the paint - particularly the lighter tones (e.g. skin and white clothing).
