Shadows
There are basically two types of shadows. The shape cast by the light and the shading on the object.
Light
produces shadow, and the source of that light is important to the painter. The
type of shadow is influenced by the light source, which can be high, low, to
one side, in front or behind.
The intensity of the light source will affect the
tonality of both shading and shadow, and its proximity to the object will
affect the intensity of the shadow.
The sun
causes many objects to have shadows and at certain times of the day, when the
sun is at certain heights, the lengths of shadows change.
If there
are multiple light sources there are multiple shadows, with overlapping parts
darker, or a combination of colours.
