Thanks for the welcome.

Steven, my lighting is very simple. I use two clamping 18 W Ott-lite lamps attached to the sides of the easel strongly supplemented by a smaller window facing the north as seen in on the the taboret shots on my site. This method of lighting works fairly well for me unless the day is very dark or the snow is very reflective! When working with live subjects, however, I often use early morning natural light from the east. To control the lighting, I will sometimes use cardboard to generate a window within a window.
