Black-eyed Susans in Amber Jar


I am really excited about all the interesting ArtBytes on DPW.  Today I'm trying out a slightly new way of taking an image of my painting. I usually set up my camera and painting in open shade but today I placed a piece of cardboard behind my work and "voila" my image appeared brighter and with less glare.  I don't know if this is a fluke or not but it's something to try again.

  1. I'll have to try that. Getting a good photo with true colors and no glare is always a challenge. I love your painting.
