Douglas waved a hand holding the brush but his eyes were still on the hands trying to figure out what wasn't just right.  Then realizing what it was, he dipped the paintbrush into a different pigment and made a few very delicate flicks of his hand, and then sat back.   A nod showing he was happy about it now.  It was basically done.  He needed to arrange for a frame though, then he could give it to his friend.

He then looked over at the doorway where Pip was standing, and he realized he had heard her talk before and blinked.  "Sorry, I get focused on my work.  This one is for the doctor.  'e 'ired me tae dae 'is portrait awhile back.  It was 'ow we met actually, I think."  He tried to remember, it seemed like a long time ago then.

He looked down at his appearance.  "Um, 'ave a seat, and let me make myself more presentable."  He called out, "Fraiser!"

Fraiser was already back in carrying some socks and shoes and a jacket.  He had known the Earl would need them.  "Thank yu."  Douglas muttered grabbing the socks and putting them on. 

Looking up as he put on the shoes, he was not one on worrying about proper behaviors especially when he was at work painting.  "What can I dae for yu, Miss Danes?"
