Paul, you're rockin' it! Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm and information!
Thank you Paul… love your positive attitude!
So, I had a bad day today. Then I watched your video. Your positive energy turned my day around.
So sorry to hear you had a bad day, but glad I could help a little! Hope the weekend is better!
@@PaulRichmondStudio So I don’t have to purchase an Digital SLR camera?
@@genevieve6021 It depends what you plan to do with the photos. If you just want to take photos to share your work online, your phone will work great. If you plan to make print reproductions, you will need a better quality camera for that.
@@PaulRichmondStudio I can’t afford digital camera 🤷🏽♀️ so I’ll stick to my iPhone 12 Pro
I can buy camera lenses to attach to my iPhone 12 Pro. I refuse to purchase an expensive digital camera.
Very informative, helpful, easy to understand and well presented. Thankyou so much!
You’re very welcome!
Thanks mate. Love the positivity!
My pleasure!
Snapseed is a life saver

Thank you for this great video. Very informative!
Thanks for this. Super helpful xx
Thank you, great video
My pleasure! Glad you liked it!
Hello Sir! this was a really beautiful tutorial, I ordered my tripod tonight and can't wait to start editing my artwork. The next thing I would like to know is, do you have videos on how to sell your artwork online, on social media?
Thanks a lot!
I'm so glad it was helpful! I don't have videos about that yet, but that's a great idea! I do have one on pricing your work if you need help with that. Definitely more to come!
@@PaulRichmondStudio Cool I will check the video on Pricing.
Good Job!!!
Again thanks for your help,I wish I could like 1000X
Great video! One follow up question I hope you can help with... my watercolour painting is done on off white paper which always comes out darker in the photo. How would you suggest lightening the background to its true colour without over lightening the painted elements? When I try to do this I often lose some of the lighter painted tones because they become too exposed. Looking forward to your thoughts!
I would suggest playing with the Highlights setting. That way it will only adjust the lightest parts of the photo rather than adjusting everything in the image (like if you used Brightness or Contrast).
thank you
My pleasure!
Hi, first thank you for this educational video!
We want to take pics of my wife’s water color paintings, generally 9 X 11 or smaller. I thought we would need a ring light? Do you have suggestion for a camera stand for iPhone?
Again thank you!
I use a really inexpensive one that I got on Amazon. Anything will work as long as it holds it steady.
@@PaulRichmondStudio It is encouraging to find people and resources like yourself that help us. In today’s world very refreshing and makes us all want to learn more. Your video encouraged me to buy a paperback book to learn more.
My first time here. I'm happy to find you. Where can l learn about pixels and how to deal with them to use photos that are too large to upload to a website, email service forms, templates, etc. I have taken photos with my camera that are too large to upload. Thank you for making these videos. I'm going to click follow!
Thanks
My pleasure!
thankyouuu
Hi Paul, thank you so much, this was so helpful and fun too. You are a great teacher, because you teach so kind and calm. No extra long story with professional language that will make one's head spin and feel overwhelming. May I please ask you something I am trying to find out for some time now? It is about the saturation of the screen of my phone. I now have an old Android Samsung, but got my first iPhone recently. I often notice there is a difference in saturation when I watch an image on my PC screen that was shot on my phone. Do you have any tips for how to set my screen on my new iPhone? Thank you so much! I wish you a beautiful weekend. Groetjes from Amsterdam :)
Thanks so much! Every computer screen is different. You should first see how your pics look on other screens to determine if the phone or computer version is more true. I believe you can get Snapseed for your computer as well as your phone, so you could always try doing the editing there
Can this info be used for taking a photo of a painting to then be used for creating prints of the painting?
I had the same question...
Is the photo still usable for prints after all the edits? Particularly after cropping. Thanks
I generally don’t use phone photos for prints. The quality is still as good as the original photo, but I do have my paintings professionally shot for prints
My daughter is an artist - what can she do with her work (or photos of it) - perhaps sell it? Suggestions?
How old is your daughter?
@@PaulRichmondStudio university - soon to graduate
@@vince6495 I do a lot of one-on-one mentoring of other artists. If that's something she might be interested in, she can shoot me an email at paulrichmond@artmakesus.com or fill out this form here: artmakesus.com/pages/visual-art-mentoring
@@PaulRichmondStudio thank you - I'll ask her
👍▶️🌈
Thanks!
