    This demo was great!!! Like seeing the view you're painting your palette and your technique. Your strokes inspire me to loosen up more. You are an inspiration to those of us who paint.
    Thank you Lena, ...Rosemarie

I painted this scene from life in our living room. It was a very enjoyable painting session even though the lighting conditions were a bit challenging.

I had to use my small portable led lights to illuminate the painting because any additional source of light would have affected the lighting of the scene. I’ll include a couple photos of my setup below. 🎨 Want to know more about gouache?
