I told my clients that they should keep it and let it 'season' a little, and that I really needed to have it out of my studio for a while, but it is my intention to take it back and see if I can finally put it right in a few weeks, maybe with a last live sitting. At the same time I don't want to reveal my friend how much I am disppointed.
It's a very nice portrait, though the boy's expression seems a bit vacant. I think I would have set it aside in my studio facing the wall for a few weeks and then worked on it again before showing it to the client.

The very successful portrait artist Bart Lindstrom recently said in a lecture to a room full of other artists, "Every 10th portrait is a disaster".
