Max Mckenzie

My wife and I travel to different parts of the country photographing new material to bring back to our home studio where I then down load the images into my computer and work form a large color montor. This is not an original idea of course. I first saw a CD of Richard Schmid and he was painting from a chair in his studio and explained that due to health reasons he had to sit mostly to paint and he too works from a TV montor as well as hard copy photographs. This works quiet well when we are traveling but nothing takes the place of painting on location. All of your senses, sight, sound, smell and any experiences that you might have on location becomes a part of the painting. This is hard to duplicate with a camera but who wants to drag all of the equipment out in the field for maybe one or two sketches when you can take a digital camera and get enough material to keep you busy for a year or more.
