Debra, Debra, Debra! Nice to be "talking" to you again! To be honest, though, if I had to go through all of that before painting a picture I'd give up and go till my garden instead! I think each of us has to find a process that pleases us and also satisfies clients - and truly, mine normally does both. I can see that I would benefit from more visits to this forum, though; working in isolation you can lose some of your sharpness and your ability to judge what you produce.
Anyway, if the client could articulate what she wanted changed I'd be happy to try; so far she hasn't been able to do that! Hopefully if I can make the modifications that Alexandra has suggested, and any others that seem helpful, that will make a difference. But I'm definitely going to get deposits from now on.
I saw your silverpoint self-portrait, by the way, and liked it, but I still adore your oils.
