The shadow knows...

The shadow knows that it is next for work. Yes, the marbles aren't done, the place mat isn't done, even the shell isn't done. Which all help me make a point.

A painting needs to progress totally, together. If any element is completed early, it often appears disjointed in the finished work.

The artist occasionally looks at the total picture. An element shows that its next for development, the shell's shadow knows.

Below, the shell's shadow is in work... but Step Nine will actually demo the results.
