Most of you know that i am sign painter and pinstriper by trade. While I may not be a brilliant scholar, I am a gifted artist in other areas of the arts, as well. I started doing paintings to supplement my income and found that my art was well recieved. Over the number of years, my fame had grown and soon people from all over the country were coming to me for paintings.
Last Friday, a stretch limo pulled up to my studio. A stunning young creature emerged, looked around, and gave me a smile that caused tingles where they probably shouldn't have been.
She asked me if i was DrCAS and after I stammered out some sort of affirmative reply, she proceed to ask if I would paint her in the nude. This was the first time anyone had made this request of me and it had me a bit flustered. This beautiful lady told me that money was no object. In fact, she was willing to pay up to $10,000! Holy bejeepers, that was a bundle of scooters, eh?
Not wanting to get into trouble with my redheaded wife (the one with the real red hair... no dimestore phony painted on job) I asked the lady to wait while I went in the house and conferred with my missus. Hey, it was the smart thing to do, donchaknow...
After a few minutes I came back out and told the lady, "It would be my pleasure to paint your portrait, ma'am. The wife says it's okay with her if i paint you in the nude, but I have to leave my socks on, if it is OK with you, so I have a place to wipe my brushes..."
