Dear Henry,
Thank you for the reply. I feel the same as you on that.
You used the word 'void' and also that the light may appear as a way out. I agree.
Could this also provide more depth perception because of the unknown? I'm just trying to figure this out, because I am a big fan of dark paintings with a light source like the portraits of Rembrandt and currently David Leffel. But I'm wondering why this draws the eye more than the lighter paintings.
Again, thanks for your input. I can always depend on the artists here on SOG to provide an excellent source of knowledge.
