In the same way that the artist uses his or her relationship with light in a painting or photograph, so we too can develop a keen awareness of light in our homes and how it relates to our art. Unlike seeing art in a museum or gallery, at home we see our art in a series of different lights at different times of the day, or seasons, though changing weather or even in artificial light. We can enhance or affect the art with good lighting and detract from it by unsympathetic lighting.
