The last brushstroke was applied, and Leo sat back, studying his canvas. The gallery owner loved it. He loved it. The piece felt like it was finally complete, the culmination of so much effort and passion.

He saw the photo from a stranger. It showed a flawless imitation of his "Cityscape Serenade" painting, inked on a calf.
