Harvey Stevenson.
"Dragonfly shadows zip and pop. Running horse shadows never stop." A simple rhyming text reflects on the impermanence of shadows, as they move, disappear, and reappear. Although the impressionistic acrylic paintings minimize the contrast between light and dark, they are accomplished and adequately convey concepts in the text.
