 How long does it take you on average to recreate a photo or turn a landscape into a screen?! 
 You mean how long does it take me to create a painting from a photo?

It depends on the subject and the size of the canvas. On average, I take two weeks between execution and waiting time for the colour to dry.

This one for example is not complete because many details are still missing.

 I get it! I already imagined that it could be like this - proportional to the size, complexity of the replicated target and drying. It was good to hear you about that!

 I like your easel ! Very simple, and can be easily resized for various canvas sizes! I’m going to try to build one like it. 
 I thank you! I created it after several attempts, in the end it's a very simple thing. The touch of class in my opinion is the crystal palette stuck underneath, it has completely changed my way of painting.

 Very nice! I have a piece of granite that I attach my drawings to that has a ball bearing turntable underneath so that I can rotate my drawings as I work. It’s also helped my drawing in ways I didn’t know I needed until I assembled it. So glad to be able to talk about art materials with a truly gifted artist.
