Dear Photographers:
When shooting an artist's canvas for conversion into transparency film, please remember that the person working with the film will never see the canvas itself, as having 15,000 canvases lying around here would suck. So, when you're shooting stuff that's, say, painted on black velvet, you might just want to haul out a light colored backdrop instead of shooting it against MORE black fucking velvet. That, or just come over here and show me where the now-invisible crop edges are yourself, goddamnit.
That, and who the fuck still paints on black velvet, anyways?
