After years of reading about light and shadow, I decided to do my own experiment and share my results with you.

Ever since I began painting back in 2010, I've always heard 'warm light, cool shadows', but I never knew the truth. Whenever I would look at a regular white light inside, the shadows just seemed dark. Even a warmer bulb just seemed to produce a dark shadow and not a colored one. Although, outside I could see more color in shadows. The results I came across in this video with these experiments were quite interesting.

When daylight was present, the 'warm light, cool shadows' theory was true. But without daylight, all shadows were just black. Observation is your best friend when it comes to painting. Don't follow a rule all of the time. See them as guidelines only. Have fun.
