Recent Charcoals : Shadow & Light

Seed Pods, Shadows & Lanterns

I have been continuing to explore the themes of Shadow & Light in my charcoal drawings, based on observations of my local environment.. although it is becoming familiar, this is still a new & foreign environment in the UAE.... My attention has been drawn to the details.. there are no vast Australian landscapes withing easy reach from here! Shadows of plants & leaves, Arabic Lanterns and Seed Pods have so far caught my attention.
