Mike,
I took the tone of your last post as being very cautionary. I then took a long, hard look at the whole scenario and came up with this: I'm approaching a young (possibly very young) possibly new Canadian from a possibly vastly different culture and offering her what mostly likely would be 3 times her normal salary to pose for some "pictures". Yikes. I might as well go down to the police station now. If my daughter got such an offer, I'd certainly want to report it. It really doesn't matter so much about being a woman in such a situation. As you say, these days...
Anyway, since this city has 2 Universities and a Community College, if I continue to have a burning desire to paint a young adult stranger, I will approach these schools about posting an ad.
I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to look at this from a few different points of view.
Oh, and as for the phone number situation, I too would not feel in any way comfortable in asking for that. Maybe the type and size of community I live in is a factor.
Janet
