Since you've worked both large and small, how do you feel about working on the card size in comparison?
Working this small conserves paint and might be a little bit faster, but it's difficult to make convincing edges. I also don't have to step back from the painting to scrutinize it. The small size limits how much detail I can add, which i think forces me to be more painterly and I like being able to display highly detailed scans for that reason. All the principles are the same of course, but it seems simpler or less intimidating to do all my learning on very small (insignificant?) canvases. Going back to large paintings will be a shock, but I'll use that time to focus more on edges and brushstroke techniques (and learning how to work with oils).
