The illusion of light in our paintings is a magical thing.  Using just contrast between dark and light  - and the subtleties of relative shades between, we can create a world.  In this episode, the forth in our series, hear how in response to a short question, I came up with the four aspects of how it is that I (at least) create worlds of light in my paintings. 

Includes ideas from a post orignally published under the same title "Painting the Light" on May 31, 2017 which can be found  here:  https://www.lifeinfullcolor.com/life-stories/may-31-2017-painting-light/
