What do you draw from - memory, a photo, or a simular picture? Is it easy for anyone to draw from memory? Do you have any tips on drawing from memory?

I want to take photos that have that old school look to them, not like black/white but colored. I was wondering if there was a certain type of camera or just how to do it in general. Sorry I don't know how to explain it very well, but thanks for any input!

Mine is Monet's Waterlilies. I've saw it at the Art Institute of Chicago. Breathtaking!

I am going to attempt a stained glass style painting on a window at church. It will be lit up from behind with soft lighting. I need to know what type of paint and medium will work best for this project. Someone told me trasnlucent acrylics, but I would hate to use these only to find out they dont work on glass or peel off.

Hi, I'm looking to invest in a cheap SLR camera, just to get started in gig photography.

Ideally, I'm looking for advice on what kind of things I need to photograph bands performing under stage lighting. I'd appreciate any help!

I'd like to get a digital SLR which I know will bump the cost up considerably, but I don't know what lenses etc I need for gig photography...

I bought some plates and they are painted but I'm assuming a final glaze was not applied b/c if I put liquid in the plates they soak it up, the paint does not run or anything like that but the plates soak up the water. How do I glaze them so that I can use them for everyday use?

the painting says, awakening. My grandparents in 1927 paid a dollar a month for it. It was framed in 1967. Is this original or a print? How much is it worth? Where can I get the most money for it

i print from old glass negatives, mostly from the 1920s or before and then i add oil colors and designs. i have no idea if anyone has ever owned copyright on these negatives, and i can rarely be sure if they are from before 1921 (the date that i believe separates public domain from copyright protection). i exhibit photos in the u.s. and in france. does anyone know the legal ramifications?
