A sample of the difference shadows on your subject creates. Notice how the shadow of the second strawberry makes it sit down on the paper while the other looks like it’s floating.

Here’s another promo for all you interested in learning the craft. “ Oil painting forBeginners ” from Daniel Edmondson. Check out his site and DVD overview, as well as some of his awesome pieces. This is not a paid advertisement. I just want to help fellow artists promote their worthwhile work and at same time, introduce newbies to good deals/free or not materials for further honing of their talent. I just direct you to the site and you do the rest.
