Well Gerry, at least it's over. I sure like some of the other commissions you've shown, but Mr. Golden has certainly put himself on the do not buy list.

Stuart, how did you contact Mr Reis?  Was it through a rep?

yes Joe, the board is all warped and bevelled . .

What? Sorry to hear that, glad that you are happy with the art.

Based on what GOLDEN did to you before -- I can't look at this piece with anything by critical eyes.

The bending of the board is very suspicious, too

I do like the drapery of the cape, though.

Stuart, that is incredible. Makes me want to either try harder or break all of my pencils.

I hope everyone here has learned at least ONE important lesson from this: never, EVER pay for a commission piece in advance.

Unfotunately, that's not how a large number of artists operate.

That said, I salute your policy concerning commissions. I have yet to find a "Bad Byrne Story" from a commissioner online.

JB,

The problem is that many artists insist on money up front.  You are the exception rather than the rule.
