Does the bank owner have a big belly? Maybe that's why the VP asked you to do the commission of him, after seeing this one! Just joking, of course. I think perhaps this portrait was striking enough to stop the VP in his tracks and your questions got him to really think about it. This is a beautiful painting and perhaps you got the commission because of this portrait, not in spite of it.

I really like what you did with the background, by the way. The whole thing has an archetypal, symbolic Rousseau feeling now.
