At a local fair last month, my booth looked washed out until a neighbor pointed out my display lights were aimed wrong. She flipped them to bounce off the back wall, and suddenly the colors popped without glare. Anyone else fix a showcase with just one angle change?
Yeah that reminds me of when I set up at a flea market and my paintings all looked like mush. Some old guy selling tools next to me said to point the lights at the ceiling instead. Took me like five minutes to adjust and everything just came alive. Still have no idea why it works but I've done it at every show since.
