varjostusilmaisut
Varjostusilmaisut are a stylistic element in visual art, particularly in drawing and painting, referring to the techniques used to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and volume through the manipulation of light and shadow. This involves rendering areas of darkness, mid-tones, and highlights on a surface to suggest that it is not flat but possesses form and depth. The careful placement and blending of these tonal values help define the shape of objects, indicate their proximity to a light source, and suggest the texture of their surfaces.
The concept of varjostusilmaisut is rooted in the understanding of how light interacts with physical objects.
Effective use of varjostusilmaisut is essential for creating a sense of realism and presence in a artwork.
