Is this okay?

Hello Monica
In view of the complexity, I'd like to avoid an email that might be confusing and rather have our business advisor Ron to contact your manager to discuss the different possibilities in order to find the best solution for you and Bill to carry out the opportunity of making a painting together


Thank you

In the first sentence you could also begin with "Given the complexity of the situation, . . . " or whatever is correct.

The second sentence was quite long, so I suggested a couple of ways to shorten it. There are many possibilities of course.

My suggested version:

Dear Monica

Given the complexity of the situation, I would prefer not to deal with this by email. I would rather have our business advisor, Ron, contact your manager to discuss the best of way of arranging for you and Bill to make a painting together (or to collaborate on a painting).
