shadows

Jenn over at Just Add Water Silly set an interesting prompt for this week's Artist Playroom.  Shadows.  How ever we want to interpret them......since it's Halloween as I write this, my mind goes to spooky and darkly shadowed places but I don't draw much and don't usually hang out in dark, grim, shadowy places. But, I want to play (especially since I've missed the last couple weeks and some fun prompts!).

I don't usually paint landscapes or still lifes that would use traditional shadowing techniques to create dimension.  However, I do play with shadows in my photography and here are a few faves.

Can't wait to see everyone else's shadows.....spooky or intriguing or ......
