Cynda Mary's School of Art tip of the day..for those that use photo reference; keep the reference as close to the area being painted as possible, and keep it as close to the same scale as you can...both will make your job easier as most people have a bad visual memory and will lose the info in just the time it takes to glance from the reference to the painting...I love my "monkey tail" a device that holds my reference tablet hands free and can easily be adjusted to any position...for a tablet i use a galaxy samsung 4 which at the time of purchase had the biggest amoled screen possible (7 inches i think)...now i would get a kindle fire or something similar and spend alot less money...as someone who loves a saturated palette these screens really "amp up the volume "
