The painting is a collage of different faces that the cricket fraternity has come to know of the West Indian over the years.

The Jamaican earlier announced his retirement from umpiring in the international level with the two upcoming ODIs between West Indies and England in Barbados on March 27 and 29 being his last assignments.
