Hoping this doesn’t get flagged as a MLM due to the unique technique I have been playing with and thought others may find it interesting or helpful

Been practicing a two light baroque lighting technique setup (thinking of adding a third light) to try and achieve this dreamy, dramatic look.

I use either black, white or grey background depending on what tone the mask will be in post. For this it was a black background and I masked a photo over the background to add some texture

Would it be ok for me use this as a painting reference? I don’t sell my paintings and I will credit you if I post it

If it's baroque then fix it.
