About light and shadow in painting David Leffel says, "As a general rule, shadow comes first. Without shadow there is no solidity. Shadow gives dimension and weight. Lights allow the eye to flow, darks stop the eye."
I love how that interplay between dark and light, solidity and flow, makes a painting whole. Like in yoga, where each pose is an interplay between stability and mobility, being grounded and free. I love how that makes us whole.
