I would say that if the vase is enough out of whack, and there are other aspects of the painting which will give indication of your accurate draftsmanship, then I would paint it as is.

On the other hand, If the painting creates any doubt in the viewers mind as to your skills, then I would clean it up. You can't hang a tag on it explaining -- it really was out of line, I just painted what I saw.

I think if it were me I would err on the side of cleaning it up.
