HI Julie
I’m enjoying looking at your lovely blog. About the shadows I have being doing drawings of the shadows in historic photos (people, horses, carts) and am suprised how they are nearly all on the road or path (not on walls where I wanted them to be for an earlier art idea) and how abstracted they are – I expected them to be stretched out and distorted but many are more like mysterious stains.
