Linda,

I was thinking more on the line of making your own holiday wearing one of them.

I cannot count the number of people who have told me, DO CORPORATE PORTRAITS!. THAT IS WHERE THE MONEY IS! You will make a fortune. I would if I could have some suits screen printed on innumerable canvasses and just have to paint the heads in. Two variations would work for most; one in a blue suit with a flag for polititians and one in a grey suit with bookcases for executives and lawyers.

Maybe we can convince our male clients to try something new in the way of costuming. Wearing a corset ourselves during the initial meeting may go a long way in convincing them. If they decide later after a consultation like that they should go elsewhere for their portrait, I say they have no imagination, on to the next!

Oh to do male portraits like the Reynolds!
