You remember that contrast is what creates separation and creates drama in these things.
And what I'm looking at right now, this area here looks kind of boring. But if I see, if
I draw what I see, or paint what I see, that light source up there is casting a line along
the edge of this pot. It throws a highlight in there. And another one in here. And, a
brightness in there. Little highlight here, a brighter highlight here, and a fine line
along the edge of that top surface. And an edge here where it meets, and an edge along
that pot. And it's brighter here. It's brighter here, and there's a strong highlight, right
in this general area. And there's some bright light up here, and a brighter highlight in
here, here, here,
and there.
Now it stands out from this background. Much more dramatic.
