Enter my resourceful husband. He purchased a series of clip lights at KMart at $7 apiece, affixed them to two no-longer-working halogen lamp poles (as shown below), and took some great quality images of my latest paintings.

Wow, wow, wow. What a gorgeous piece. You just want to dive in.
The lighting on a painting is everything. It brings the work to life. And, that setup is a brilliant idea.

Good pic, great painting !
What kind of bulbs are you using? and what watt ?
Thank you, I'm so glad you like this painting!
Dean, I think he used regular household light bulbs, nothing special. The colors came out very true to life.
