Light, Shadow & Reflections

March 5, 2017

This post contributed by Tianna Lewis.

Susan McKinnon, Reflections V

Artists have been utilizing light’s emotional power for ages. Renaissance painters developed the technique of chiaroscuro to bring new drama to their work. Darkroom photographers dodge and burn for days to get the right tone. The impressionists are famous for their obsession with light, studying the same scene at different times of day, during different seasons, to capture its ever changing qualities. Whether it be dappled light pouring through trees, or the rolling shadow of a storm cloud, light has a way of moving us.
