| | Sometimes I get a curious sensation when looking at shadows of objects. Sometimes they seem more real, more alive somehow, than the thing itself. Maybe it's the temporal nature of shadows that I respond to. This young maple appears to stand more or less still. But the shadow flickers and breathes, transforming itself second by second in a steady dance across the wall. | |

I love your naked trees! I've been saving a post on shadows for My Great Day. I'll let you know when I post it.
Wow- fantastic color and shapes.
Hi Suzanne--and thanks! I love your Great Day posts--I'll look forward to it.
Thank you, Joan. I'm enjoying watching the "process" on your blog.
Don, there is a great article on the Courbet exhibition in the online New York Review of Books. Much of what is said about process is typically embarrassing but the whole political/ego element is fascinating. Luckily the exhibition is coming back to near-by Montpelier in June so perhaps I will visit it again with my new information. Julian
whoops! sorry hope you can delete the extra comment
Its my favorite thing sunshine and shadows! They make everything beautiful...Dixie
Thanks Julian, for the link to Golding's article--very interesting.
Dixie, where would we be without sunshine and shadow?!
I am a lover of shadows too and you have painted them beautifully -and a little window to wonder about the within - perfect!
Thanks a lot, Triecia.
Such a simple sight. The side of the house with a young tree casting it's shadow. Evocative of a peaceful moment by oneself. Time to reflect.
Silvina, thanks for your reflective thoughts.
