Painting from a Monitor instead of a Print

[Linda Nelson]

My computer is a laptop, so I can rest it on its side if desired (I never have though, as it would make accessing the keyboard more difficult).

My mother's computer monitor (samsung Syncmaster 213T) IS a truly pivoting monitor, with a neck to swivel the monitor from horizontal to vertical. The software she added to her computer to tell it to orient the screen vertical or horizontal is called Pivot Pro.

I may try this in the future. I think I'll use life and photos with it because as someone noted our subjects are not inner lighted in reality. I can't imagine the adjustments in store especially in the darks.
