I've gotten a lot of requests for close-up views of my shadow box. I am posting them and a description on my studio blog if you're interested.
Lately I've been experimenting with a change in my lighting. I'm using a "daylight" spotlight bulb (still a bit yellow) straight on my subject, and a REAL balanced daylight bulb (fairly blue) pointing up in my shadow box so it sort of bounces around. This gives things an interesting color tilt that I've been grooving on.

Carol, you are awesome. Thanks so much for the pics of the shadow box. Love the painting too!
I love what you're doing!
I hope to construct a similar shadow box and I LOVE your studio. The shelves holding all your treasure are wonderful!
gorgeous ...I like the tricky center/off center interest in the composition!
beautiful painting and thank you very much for sharing the details of your shadow box.
how excited are you to finally be in that gorgeous studio????? - i LOVE those narrow shelves..and i know you'll never stop looking for interesting painting fodder - you'll just have to put in more shelves, huh? i'm so happy for you - it's been a long process and so worth it in the end!!! lyb
Thanks always for always sharing so generously! The studio looks great.
