Garth, I wish you could persuade your clients to move the drum to the right. When it is centered, the drumsticks look too much like they are sticking right out of (or into) the center of it. And the drumsticks are already centered on the boy's shirt. If you point this out, they might be agreeable. Aside from the position of the drum, I love it.

Hi Allan and Alex, and thanks for your sincere input.

I could argue that the present position of the drum perhaps affords a psychologically a truer portrait representation of this quiet kid. His parents as clients, think so too.......
