So sometimes I will take drawings and paintings during the creating process and look at them in the mirror or take photos of them and flip the image horizontally. I must be seeing them so long that I want a "new view" of them. I even keep unfinished works upside down when I am not working on them. I have come a long way since I started and paint realism, the better I get the less works of art have ever achieved "hyper-realism" because my eyes can see better. Discuss this or similar things , how you feel and what you think.

I do something similar. I research a subject. The Madonna and child. Then I take a piece that inspires me from that genre and use that to create my holiday cards.

Since I was bee keeping I decided to do a Madonna and Child except I used bees as my subject. I created the art on 8 1/2 x 11 130 pound cold press. I used water color pencils and water color. Then I scan it in and shrink it down to 1/2 size. It looks much better that way. Plus the folks get original art holiday cards. I have fun with my art.
