Kim, nature (painting from life) takes care of many things. You don't have to paint the whole from life either. You can make observations of parts (cloth and background say). If you think photo, f5.6 will give you the soft background, but your eyes can do that too-and better. If you look at stuff like the background from life you see shapes and colors that a camera won't give you and it's very liberating.N. Fechin below;
