"Free Spirits"9" x 12" oil on hardwood $125.00
I am my own worst enemy when it comes to taking pictures of my work and adding it to my website. One would think after 20 plus years in marketing and advertising I would understand the importance of documenting and publishing my work on my website. I photographed about 7 paintings yesterday and added them to the website. I realized that I still have about 6-7 more paintings to list on my website.
I have my first add running next month and I want to be sure I am getting my monies worth from the ad so I need to list everything for sale. The problem i have is that I am not a great photographer I am good enough to understand my 35 mm exposure etc but it is film and way to much trouble. I have a digital point and shoot that works well but it is not easy to compensate for lighting exposure etc. So I have to use my front porch as my photography studio and natural lighting which is dependent on the time of day.
I am actually getting better but I hate to do it because half the time the image is too bright too dark etc. Most of the things I can compensate for in photoshop thank goodness I am a better graphic designer than a photographer. When you paint every day that equals a lot of painitngs to shoot.
Don't let that stop you from viewing my website I will be adding new photos by the masses so please check back often. I am painting daily beaches and horses in small affordable sizes
