Allan,

This is, I think your best so far, beautiful saturated color and exquisite lighting. I applaud your bold use of a rougher canvas, something I am considering myself. Titian as he got older used increasingly more textured canvasses.

Allan, try these suggestions for getting a better photograph of your painting.

Use a polarizing filter, if you are not using one now. Put balck velvet to the bottom of the painting to reduce glare. Also, try reducing the glare with side panels of black velvet as well. That is a little trickier as you want to ensure having enough light to shoot.

Could I borrow your daughter?
