Foreshortening

Jennifer, unless you are about to lose your phone service, don't do it. It is an odd phenomenon that somehow things that read in a photo don't always translate to a painting.

One of the most important lessons in portraiture or any commissioned work is to learn when to stand up to a client.

I can't see how this will ever work.

One thing that you can do if you are desperate is sign it in an illegable cartouche of your initials. I have one of those hanging around. I hope nobody ever figures it out.
