Tall, dark and handsome
This is Clueless the Horse (he's a 20" x 24" acrylic). I recently finished this commission and his owner seemed genuinely please with him. However, I have 2 questions I thought this Forum could help me with. First, if a source photo has an incredibly fuzzy and bland background (as my painting denotes), is it an artistic no-no to "create" a more interesting background? And second, do most artists use a professional photographer to take pictures of the final product for the artist's portfolio? As you can see, my picture-taking isn't what is should be. Thanks for any ideas you may have!
