Lighting is the identifying of the source of light in a photograph or a drawing. Lighting is extremely important, as it can give a variety of different effects to a piece of work. If the light is coming from the front of an object, it gives a brightness to the work. If it is coming from the back, the work might be more sullen or dark than if the light was from the front. Aside from that, identifying light also allows the artist to know where to put shadows, so as to not result in an awkward placing of shadows that might ultimately ruin the work.
