I had the worse time trying to photograph this painting due to the glare. Doing a painting a day doesn't allow time for dark colors to dry. Not being a great or even a photographer in the first place really presented in issue for me. Note to self, use camera only in day light...when possible. That's all I have for the day. Back to painting, what are you doing today?
The glare is a difficult thing to handle on a dark background and doing it outside can be a problem also. I slightly bring mine forward from the wall or easel with a piece of longer masking tape in the top back and then angle my camera slightly pointing up so the two sides match. Hope this helps, Blanche. Maybe you can take it again so I can see the full richness of this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the help Julie. I will certainly try your method and re-post this painting.
