Shadow Art – Kick Start

I used shadows to create this type of art.

We needed to go outside and find a shadow on a sunny day, but I made do with shadows around my house.

First, I found my shadow, then traced around it. To add some variety, I coloured in both artworks. I did one artwork with the shadow coloured in(left), and one artwork with the background of the shadow coloured in(right).

The hardest part was tracing the shadow, because most of the edges were blurred. Unfortunately, the sky was cloudy, which made less light shine through. With both of the artworks, I added more lines to them which I thought should be there. Can you guess what plants I drew?

Which artwork is your favorite, and why?
