It is most interesting to read what other artists do. Here is what works for me....
I have at least TWICE the recommended true-color-balanced flouresent lighting installed in my studio ceiling. I need lots of light to see what I am doing and a rainy day or nighttime cannot stop me from painting.
The paintings that I produce in this lighting seem to look good anywhere, and in any light that they are hung.
Also, as I near the end of a painting, I shut off all but the most minimal of lights to see if my painting appears to "glow with light"....and if it doesn't, I flick on all the lights and continue the process of building light with my paintbrush.
