1363 Rotate

In this morning's painting class we painted from photos - upside down. . . I paint this way often (that explains a lot, you are probably thinking!) - but mostly if I am using a photo for reference, I turn the painting and photo upside down and paint that way until about the last 25% (whatever that means). And always on the bigger canvases - I take them off the wall, put them on the floor, turn them upside down and then sideways. . . and sometimes I sneak up on them (shhh). . . still painting, 4" x 4" $60 click here to purchase
