Michele, I tried that - it got me to where I am now. I think the computer technologies, although they get me away from the studio, do a much better job of showing where a person has gone astray. Turning the painting upside down, or looking at it in a mirror, can often help a mistake to pop right out. However, seeing how much more obvious errors are with computer aids makes me wonder whether any of the more classical methods would have worked with this one. Maybe turning its face to the wall for a few weeks might have helped but I'm not sure.
