You are the BEST!!
This is gorgeous and its almost eerie to see the photos of the actual
model sitting next to your painting!
I just wish your Dad could have seen these. Wherever he is he’s bursting
his buttons with pride at your fabulous work, Joe.
OOXXOO, Carolyn C
Beautiful painting, Joseph! What are those lights you are using?
They are “Diva-Lites” (LOL) by KinoFlo. The color temperature is decent – like daylight but a little on the pink side – and the cast shadows are fairly soft … sort of a cross between a small window and a regular spotlight. They also have a dimmer, and the larger model has a universal voltage option (important for my work in England). They also come with a hard travel case. I like them, although it’s a lot to lug around!
Here’s a link (I have the 400 universal kit and the 201 kit): http://www.kinoflo.com/Lighting%20Fixtures/Diva-Lite/Diva-Lite.htm
Joseph, I love seeing all the pictures that accompany your finished product! It’s fun to see the story unfold.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful – as usual.
