If object volume is correct but cast shadow does not follow surface what happens?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The spatial relationship will appear inconsistent
A cast shadow must spread according to the light source, the ground, and the form of the receiving surface. Even when the object has correct volume, a shadow that ignores the surface direction, slope, or shape makes the spatial relationship between the object and surface look unnatural. Distorted proportion is mainly caused by an error in measuring the object, not by an incorrect cast shadow. Exam tip: while drawing a cast shadow, check both the direction of light and the slope of the surface receiving it.
