June 27, 2021 – Sun and Clouds Sang Dappled Light to Me – Barton Springs Greenbelt, Austin Texas, Part 2

I’m starting a small mini-series of posts about dappled light as a way of helping me get my head around why I like it so much and how I might replicate it in pigment better…Turns out many of my more favored photos have some degree of dappled light to them. Not all of my favs…

Today I want to expand on an image I presented in my last post, showing how quickly the light can change and, more importantly, how it can change the impact of what is seen, at least for me 😊

The time stamp shown via my screen shots from my photo files shows all 3 of the above pics captured within only 3 minute!

I was really disappointed til I got the idea maybe it’d be good to show this – the quickness of the light, and the varying visual impact 😊

There’s something to be said, in terms of mood and attractiveness, about each of the 3 presentations, especially using different colors and texture; but for now, my current preference is definitely for learning to apply (paint) with more of the dappled look.

In the 2000s, in oil, I did paint a few works in what I have in mind, and looking back at them now (the one with the white kitty is always in or near our dining area), I realize now why folks seem to like these so much!

I’ll have more images of how the light changes next post, but for now, I’ll finish with a gorgeous photo of the light and a lady & her dog who graciously posed for me to get this shot – my sincere thanks! ❤️

Next post I’ll have a couple more examples of the dappled light disappearing (or appearing) & the difference it makes, plus another sample of one of my original oils that also more or less accidentally, or at least not consciously, captured a moment in oil of dappled light ♥️

Stay creative everyone – keep learning! It Sure helps me!
Even at 70! 😊 💕
