The interesting thing to me this time around, looking at the brightly lit pics above and the deeply shadowed ones below, is the distinct difference it makes — having dappled or varying light!
Alternating degrees of light and dark, warm and cool, things I’ve been seeing folks like Dianne Mize talk about in her art tips and YouTube videos – I can see it happening more easily in nature, and it’s making it easier for it to all make more sense to me ☺️
It even happens inside, in our homes, our interiors!
No wonder my daughters like plants in their homes so much! 🪴
And below is another of my circa 2000 oil paintings where I mostly accidentally created a dappled light piece of art, lol! 😊
I’m very much hoping, with more consciousness to the matter now, I’ll be making new art, with this idea in place!

Thanks so much everyone! Stay well! 🙏

[…] with, lol! Essentially I’ve taken 3 shots of a walking figure. Readers may recall I posted ( in 3 parts ) about how quickly the light changes from shadow or full sun into dappled light then back again. […]

Sure seems so! I guess I just hadn’t made the connection in my mind’s eye how true that is! Night and day, when the two meet so to speak – magical indeed, Robin! ❤️
