1. Find a comfortable place to work with your materials. It could be a cozy corner of your home or on a blanket at the beach or anywhere that feels good to you.
2. Include soft music or lowered lighting if you think it could help you to focus.
3. Place your paper or canvas within reach. Set up the mirror next to your paper or canvas so that you can look at your reflection and the surface of your paper or canvas easily.
4. Set up your paint, pencils, or charcoal within reach and start capturing your reflection on the canvas/paper.
