SUGGESTIONS FOR PHOTOGRAPHING YOUR WORK:

• Your artwork should be photographed with a clean, neutral colored background. If you are photographing indoors, do so in a room with plenty of windows and natural light.
• Photographing your artwork outdoors when it is cloudy or overcast, with indirect sunlight provides the best lighting.
• Natural light can be a beautiful way to photograph your work as long as it is indirect.
• Your images need to be clean, that is without distracting background and in sharp focus.
• You can use your cell phone if you do not have access to a digital camera.
