Substance and Shadow

Yes... I know... it's been awhile. During my web wanderings last night I came across Sketchbook Challenge. This month's theme is Opposites. I drew a pile of smooth stones that sits upon my table. They are solid, have form, substance... they are something you can touch. Granted you can move them around for a different view but they are still the same damn rocks. Whereas shadows are elusive. You try to touch them and behold your own shadow melds with them creating something else altogether. You change the lighting and shadows move instantly as if afraid they'll disappear completely. Makes me want to read Peter Pan again.
