John,
You can sell the camera and send me the money so I can sign up for the William Whittaker workshop.
Kidding.
My logic would have been totally different if one of the SOG artists had done this little test. As it is, I think painting from life is the ultimate test of one's abilities. I do see artists that paint pretty well from photos, because the photo doesn't move and gives you plenty of time to get it right. However, painting from life separates the "men" from the "boys". It takes a lot of time and practice and knowledge to nail it. It is the ultimate accomplishment.
