An unusual request for body parts.

[Mary Sparrow]

There is photographer in town that photographs baby body parts. I had someone ask me would I paint or draw the same? I told her I would think about it and get back to her.

So, I put Liza on the sofa with my black Gap skirt in front of a window to see if I could photograph something similar to what she describes. When I loaded my disk to the computer I was SO HAPPY with the results, of course this is MY baby and Im sure that plays a part. So now I have a series of her "body parts" and I plan to print these out and frame them all together. Which is what this mother has asked me to do of her baby, only she wants it done in a series of small paintings.

I'm curious as to what you think of this idea, and if you think these would be good reference material. I personally love them as they are, but am not sure what I think about doing what has been asked of me? Your honest opinions are valued.
