Awesome result, Jos. Your handling of the light is just beautiful. What is the light source here? Also love the palette. Nice job.

hello Candace,

thnxx.. Light sources were a fluorescent tube on the ceiling (philips tld 930=3000K) and a slightly warmer halogen spot light, placed just above the setup. On my easel I had 2 of the same fluorescent tubes, plus a halfway exposed 950 tube (5000K) to make the light slightly cooler than in the subject. This way I tried to get some of the yellowness of the light in the painting..
