We've all heard it: warm light means cool shadows, right? Well, guess what? That's a myth! Here's why.

Check out this stunning painting by Joaquin Sorolla. Warm light hits the character’s face, making the shadows cooler. The same thing happens with the clothes.

Sure, warm light and cool shadows often appear together and can be useful. But it’s not a hard rule. In this painting, the warm sunlight contrasts with the blue sky and sea, making the shadows blue.

So, sunlight hits the water and bounces back blue. This happens often in nature, which is why artists use the warm light, cool shadow rule. But remember, it’s not mandatory!

Next time someone mentions it, you can say, “Not always!” Knowing this lets you make your own artistic choices and have more fun painting!
