Thank you Michael, I got so useful suggestions!
Nice work Chuang. When you have shadow and light on the same surface, make sure the shadow relates ..in your painting, the light is cool ..so that shadow should be warmer ...something along the color of the clouds ..only darker. To relate the shadow to the light, you must introduce some of the color of the light INTO the shadow ... all of your other shadows, you correctly painted warm ...do so with that shadow also. Also, watch your dark family, and light family values very carefully. Your shadow on the wall is in the dark family, but is LIGHTER then your sunlit roof .which is in the LIGHT FAMILY ...your shadow area, being in the dark family, must be darker then the darkest thing in the light family . Non light stays in the dark family, light stays within the light family ..they normally do not cross over.
