I had a request from one of my galleries to do a painting like this- this size and subject matter. They have a client interested in getting one of my paintings and this is what might work for them.

I don't mind doing paintings for people by request, as long as the subject is something I would paint anyway. For me, this is more comfortable than a commission, which is a situation loaded with pressure- for both me and the client. This way, if they like the painting they can take it and if not, it's available for someone else.
