   Ten years ago, artist Grahame Hurd-Wood set himself a huge challenge.

   He resolved to paint an individual portrait of every resident of the city he lives in.

   Fortunately for him that city is St Davids in Pembrokeshire, the smallest in the UK, with about 1,800 residents.

   But it is still an enormous task.

   A decade on from his decision, Grahame is 1,000 portraits in, and the aptly titled City of Portraits project, rather than getting smaller, is increasing as the scope of his ambition broadens.
