Ongoing lessons

A painter can spend up to 10 years on a painting.  I have learned a lot in doing this painting in just a few months, although it's not finished.  In order to see the true depth of color, one must observe from life, and not from photographs.  Thank god to Google, we can almost always get references. However, a flat random photo can never fully justify a set up, an object, or a action.  I would totally recommend not to be dependent on photo references.
