Ben's family painting/drawing old and new.

I recently started editing "The Black Horizon" and decided to redraw the famous drawing from the story. Three years ago, when I first wrote the book, I drew the painting. Hopefully there is an improvement in my drawings.

 The newer drawing, which I edited to make it look like it is in an actual frame and drawn on canvas.
Philip is sitting on the ground, sulking because he did not want to be drawn (it takes many hours of sitting still, something which he can't manage) Thomas is standing behind him, feeling all proud, but not realizing that he forgot his shoes. Blackjack is holding, Margret and has his arm around his wife. Madame Raswel is holding Lucy. Ben is peeking out from behind his mother's skirts, he is obviously feeling a little shy. Matthew has his hand on James' shoulder.

This is the older drawing. Blackjack is still holding Margret. Madame Raswel is still holding Lucy. James is standing behind her. Philip is standing in front of James. Ben is between his parents. Matthew is kneeling, and Thomas is sitting.

God Bless You All,

P.S.
Expect a lot of drawings from this book.
