Dear Ant,

I appreciate that you shared your pointers regarding achieving a successful posthumous portrait. I never thought of watching out for the slump of the shoulders or lightening the eyes.

So far I have done 2 portraits in black and white, orders received based on my black and whites that people had seen on my web site.

I personally thought it is strange how a blk/wht character study looks interesting, but a blk/wht posthumous looks like a funeral picture. On the next one, I will take your advise at heart and try to convince the client to go color.
