RObert,
I've had great results photographing paintings on sunny days with the light
striking the work at whatever angle is best to avoid glare. Try using a thin
white linen sheet to cut the light a little if you dont want any sparkles on
paint ridges (or pits) if they exist. I like what the sunlight does with textural
details on a piece because it gives folks an idea of what the piece itself is
like. If the piece is already framed it is sometimes difficult to avoid a shadow
of the frame and not get some glare.
Then theres always scanners, laser color copies(some surprisingly clear, but
dont expect color accuracy). I have just started scanning some of my smaller
pieces that would fit on the scanner and they look great on the screen but i
don't have a way to get good prints of them.
