How do shadows change based on the direction of light?

  • 1

Shadows shift depending on the light source’s position. When light is direct, shadows are sharp and short; when light is angled or diffused, shadows lengthen and soften, changing shape and direction accordingly.

  1. The direction and intensity of light greatly influence how shadows appear. When light shines directly onto an object, shadows are sharp and well-defined. If the light comes from an angle, shadows stretch away from the light source, appearing longer and softer. Diffused or soft light results in faint, blurry shadows. Observing these changes helps artists accurately depict depth, contrast and spatial relationships in still life drawings, enhancing the sense of realism and dimensionality in their artwork.
