Vermeer lighting




I finally got to see "The Girl with the Pearl Earring" last weekend, and was blown away by the lighting and sheer beauty of every scene. So, I'm in the process of planning my next challenge. I've found a beautiful dress for Clea to wear (Betsy Johnson, resale shop, $20.)! It's cream with peach undertones, she will be seated on a chair with a rose cushion ( I want the peach with rose reflections). And this time I will actually use a backdrop in the deep sage green so I can incorporate the green in the reflections also. Now the lighting is what will make this piece. I'll be posting my reference photos for critique, but in the meantime does anyone have any suggestions. How do I get that light???

Jean
