Portfolio Prep: Continue to work on composition in painting. Create a visual focus that leads the eye to the most important part of the painting. Fill the space in an interesting way. The photos must become part of the painting. By layering paint & doing many layers, the photos will look like they are part of the painting. All borders & cut edges must not be seen - allow the paint to go right onto the photos, stain & paint them - just do NOT let them disappear!
