When oil painting, we are not actually painting the object placed in front of us. What we are really painting is light. This makes art studio lighting our most important art material.
The best art studio lighting for painting is natural daylight. In the Northern hemisphere this would be from a North facing window. However, we do not all have the luxury of a painting studio with natural light. Also some of us may choose to work outside of daylight hours. If that is case, there are lots of different kinds of art studio lighting setups available using Daylight lamps. But not all daylight lamps are created equal. In this video Alex shows you what he believes to be the best kind of daylight lamps to use, Bi-Colour LED Video light. Using these lights, Alex show you how you can acheive a painting studio lighting set up at home that is comparable with natural daylight.
