Great subject, Peter.
Mirrors, putting the image into Photoshop, and absence from the work for a time all seem to help. Even taking a digital photo and looking at the image in the camera can jog the brain to see something that it missed.
And drawing, drawing, drawing to better "see" before committing to paint.
Pardon my ignorance, but who is Coldstream? Would you mind sharing a link to his or her work?
