Peggi Kroll Roberts's artist's MVP

3/7/2014

3 Comments

 
Peggi Kroll Roberts developed these most wonderful MVP's. MVP stands for Mirror, Value, and Planner. A lanyard holding all three items hangs around your neck, so you won't lose them and they're always at hand. The plexi-glass Mirror enables artists to look at their painting and/or subject in reverse making inaccuracies easier to see. The Value Viewer is a piece of transparent dark red plexi- glass enabling the artist to see only shades of lights and darks for determining the appropriate value relationship to be painted. The Planner, is a clear piece of plexi-glass with a 1/2” black border surrounding a black lined grid enabling the viewer to determine desired composition and accuracy in drawing of the subject. All 3 plexi-glass viewers are 3”x4”x 1/8” with a 1/4” hole drilled in a corner suspended on a 1-1/4” key ring and attached to a lanyard. 
I had one and found it invaluable, —unfortunately it is in a cow field somewhere... I'm very glad to have another one for the coming spring painting. I also use it in my studio.
http://artworkessentials.comThe Planner is actually from Artwork Essentials , but Peggi came up with the idea of putting all three together in a handy unit. Hooray, Peggi. 
You can find these at Peggi's site,
