Light made me, shadows shaped me
Shadows through an early morning window, street light casting shadows on a wall during stormy weather.

Hear me out. Friday 13th sure is revealing many shadows. Run away ships. Grounded planes. Weather webpage outage. Data outages for merchants. Outlook outage yesterday.
Time to address these shadows and shed light on their overwhelming crashing. Supremacy not so supreme? Their certainty has flaws?

I find it so mindblowing that cold light creates warm shadows and warm light creates cold shadows 🧐 WIP

It sucks being having to be in hospital on your birthday. Get well soon, ao3, and happy birthday! (Also there’s no way I can pic a favorite fic, but MAYBE the Shadows and Light series by Not Poignant.)

Instead of starting with light I start with shadows and then apply the lights. This makes complex lighting easier as it mimics how Light works more accurately
1.) Draw dark "Local Colour"
2.) Ambient occlusion (super dark shadows for geometry edges)
3.) Apply light sources 1 by 1

If I had to guess,
(1) light manipulation like god-rays, dappled light, heavy shadows, etc.
(2) wide landscape shots, usually ft. some kind of titanic being
(3) dramatic facial expressions maybe?

One thing I've wanted to talk about is how I do shading as its a bit different to others
A lot of artists draw light and then shadows. However this can be awkward when using several light sources
E.g. in this Makoto pic there are 3 light sources
1. Yellow Sun
2. Blue necklace
3. Grey/light Ambient

There's no objective criteria for good or bad art
But there's objective criteria for how light works and what makes up color and how anatomy works
Thats VERY objective
So instead of asking "how do I make my art better" ask how you can do things like light and shadows or perspective better

A crimson warmth upon the skin of night–The strawberry moon dissolves the lingering sun–Weaving a legacy of shadows and light–Where poetry and passion merge as one.
Your vision leaves its timeless trace,
A sacred signature of light & grace.

autumn serenade is now
straddling morning calls
bathed in gentle light
whispering oracles
in lyrical breaths
weaving through song
delightfully earthy melodies
a flushing bliss of color
