    Lights

    The cheapest option is free!!! It’s called Natural light. Take your painting into a naturally lit room or even outside on an overcast day, we will be covering this on the day. 

    A great low budget option by a company called Amaran. The smaller cheaper option offered by Aputure (Amaran is their sister company). Incredibly versatile, I will be explaining why these lights are great as an option they are around £297 - great bang for you buck they are so bright. We use these in the studio to light models.
