Painting, drawings, framing and other studio tidbits
Other creative solutions and ideas
Cleaning brushes
When cleaning your brushes, first wipe them with a dry paper towel, then dip them into your solvent can... this keeps the solvent cleaner longer.
Plein Air Painting
After you have chosen your landscape to paint, try capturing the shadows first. They will move, shorten or lengthen depending upon which way the sun moves.
Record our progress
Any time you are painting, use a camera to record "progress" shots of your work. You will find that this allows you to review your steps and suggest shortcuts for your next piece.
