Here! Here!

Exacctly right, Mike. I have been painting for over 40 years and there is a lot to consider when approaching a painting. I was advised early in my efforts in portraiture to identify my weeknesses and work on them. Knowwing this particular art form uses photography to a great degree I felt that a course on the subject was imperative. This does not diminish the other factors.

I too play with the light and have made the transition to digital photography and am not intimidated now when called (at least not any more than the beginning jitters that I face at the start or the anticipation of my client viewing the piece for the first time).
