Viewfinder

       To use, print the viewfinder on cardstock or heavy paper, then cut out the dark rectangle in the center.  

       Note:  In the long run, your viewfinder should be the same proportion as the canvas or paper your going to use.  You can find at most art stores a plastic viewfinder whose window is adjustable.

       To use the viewfinder, hold it at arms length and look through the window.   Pull it toward you and you'll get a wide-angle view; extending it forward gives a close-up view.  Hold it horizontally, then vertically to decide which orientation you like best.  Then move the viewfinder back and for, side to side and up and down until you find the composition you like.
