You could sew up the leg holes - would you remove the lace first?

Michael, Marjorie and Double D - you are now being too silly!! Think how strange I would look with the holes sewn or laced up - get a grip! Double D that sounds a little naughty, or is it my mind? Bags me to patent the idea - think of the millions I could earn.

Oh dear Double D - a mad dash to that little girl's room is needed again!! I can hardly see the keys for the tears running down my face.

Just don't paint in any trademarked advertising slogan/shop names... Especially if you proceed to offer it for sale... Yes in the UK we have Artists' panoramic freedom...just be careful as its not so in the USA and the buggers are armed.

HI, can I ask a supplementary question please. I was at Hinton Ampner (National Trust) sketching which is permitted, and I wanted to add some sketches of the people wandering around. Is this OK?

Yes just go ahead - after all you are not doing a portrait - just a drawing in which their outline appears. Sobering thought isn't it - you don't have copyright of your own face but you can have copyright of a cartoon version of it !!!
