All of you say such nice things. This forum is like a refuge from the asperity we get in the world.
Julie,
I'm blessed with a steady hand, I have a good mahlstick, I have some high magnification closeup glasses and I use small new watercolor sable rounds on the details. I also use high end paint without fillers to get the maximum paint strengh in thin applications. Sometimes I grind my own Titanium White which is super intense. I also like working small.
Tom,
I too love to get in close and examine paintings. I think the biggest drawback in displaying paintings on the Internet is that we can't get in close enough to see technique.
