The story behind Carolyn 2

This is the most technically accomplished portrait that Bert Ernie has ever done. It is a master at the height of his powers. Intended to impress his ex-girlfriend, Bert pulled out all the skills he possessed in painting this photorealistic work of art.

When Bert showed this painting to Carolyn, she was not impressed at all. She hated it so much she even had a legal restraint imposed on its publication. Which has now lapsed.
