I have a stand that has three lamps on it that can be adjusted to shine in different locations (mine face up towards the ceiling). They each have verilux bulbs in them and the whole gizmo sits behind the easel towrds the right. Two more lamps with same lighting are mounted right above the easel and can shine straight down on the painting.
I don't know about the quality of the lighting or weather Verilux is better/worse than True Color bulbs, or if I should throw this all out and get flourescents.
I like Karin's idea of creating a workspace that is always lit the same, but I lack the knowledge on how to do it without paying an arm and a leg. Karin did you have a professional install the lighting? This might sound really stupid, but I have always been a bad judge when it comes to recognizing the right values, so how can you tell if you have the optimum lighting installed?
