Today I demonstrated at the Florida Strawberry Festival using a WetCanvas photo reference. More people who came by were amazed with my use of the laptop to pull up the reference and paint from it. I know there are many of you who do the same. It saves my eyes and I can enlarge, reverse image, reduce saturation for value studies....on and on. This is an 8X10 in oil on masonite panel. I may do a little more work on the blanket across his shoulder, but my aim was to get the pose and the COLORFUL face and water jar.

Very colorful and interesting character Deb!
Wonderful job Deb. I also use my laptop to put my reference on. I especially like the "posterize" aspect. It helps show your values.

As far as I am concerned.......the ONLY way to go anymore! The high resolution is a must!
