Charles Manson is as close as a human can come to being the personification of evil, IMO. He was one sick puppy. Verging on the status of Antichrist. Your painting captures him well, Paul

As for people not paying for portraits they commission, I think I remember there being quite a history attached to that problem, so you're in good company there. I remember a story about a photographer who was commissioned to photograph Feargil Sharkey for a record cover. His employers told him to 'make him look handsome', to which the photographer replied, "I'm a photographer, not a fucking plastic surgeon."
