Painting Maui Hawaii on Location en plein air
Nahiku Fruit Stand in the Shade
69.htm, Maui, 15x22, Oil
I was parked here a couple of days and Tom built this fruit stand for his kids. It's a typical Nahiku scene if I ever saw one. This tip is about photographing your work, it's best to shoot 4x5 transparencies instead of 35 mm. You can't reproduce a 35 mm larger than 8"x10" while a 4x5 will make a fine 24x36 reproduction. Shoot the pictures at 11:00 AM for the whitest light.
This was a few years ago, I've learned since to use full resolution png's on my images.
