An artist uses primarily two concepts to portray a masterpiece – light and shadows
You could ask – if light is what we want – shouldn’t we just paint light – but without the contrast of the shadows, all light would be an indistinguishable oneness
I once asked a great photographer how come black and white have so much power and he said because of the contrast
You see, if God would only give us light, we couldn’t appreciate any of it, much like a child has no appreciation for the effort that mother and father sacrifice for them Sent via my BlackBerry from Vodacom – let your email find you!
