Hi Paul Merry Christmas and happy New year to all of you Thanks again for another great video and I have not heard of the use off the mirror to see your paintings and subjects together as flat surfaces for comparison before. Learning new things every day. Thanks again Sheila
Always so instructive and inspiring thank you for discussing mirrors. Maybe you might discuss your views on learning about making portraits, how easy did Mary Minifie find getting a likeness and getting that colour relationship to look authentic viewing the portrait ‘as the whole’ . Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas
2:00 huh? Whaaa? If one should compare the work to anything it would be the thing itself. A Mirror would seem irrelevant. Not even that self indulgent dude putting down sculpture in his insecurity, rendered mirrored images of what he painted. I guess I just don't understand. But let me not become yet another Flake not seeing Leonardo for some of his shortcomings. He made some pretty stupid mistakes and was not the mathematical Genius that fake sophistoes like my Architecture and design acquaintance (personal friend baby boomer) likes to think he was without really looking into things. Becomes a symbol for the ignorant in many cases. Yah. The elite ignorance. Lol

Stay safe all!
I do this and I do find it helpful. Occasionally I can see my biggest errors.
Haha love the thumbnail
