To draw light is absurd at first; because if the drawing surface is light, each stroke makes the paper darker than it is. But light in the picture is much more than pure brightness. Only the shadows, the alternation of light and dark, shape it, create space and atmosphere. The lighting determines what is seen and what remains hidden - and what can be guessed at. Peter Boerboom and Tim Proetel have compiled the basic topics for the representation of light, commented on them and made them intuitively tangible with auxiliary lines. For beginners as well as professionals, this book offers a refreshingly simple view of the graphic emergence of light and dark.
