In early November, 2005, I sat in my sitting room listening to the radio. I must have dosed off or was too engrossed in the music, because before I knew it, the sun had set and there I was alone in the dark. The only light that filtered in was generated from the street lights and other apartments. As Scott Mills introduced the next song on the ‘your call’ segment of his show, I noticed the interesting shadows that the streaming light projected on the ceiling. I was instantly drawn to it as it seemed so simple in form, yet so complex. It took several days before I felt confident that I could capture in on canvas. This was my first attempt at this technique, but I think I pulled it off
