I wanted this painting to have a soft, delicate feel so the background and shadows are purposely velvety and muted. Lighting is from the lower right, making the brightest areas the front of the car. Notice how the light shines through the atomizer, giving the shadow a rosy glow. I moved the lighting around many, many times to get those lovely parallel shadows you see on the lower left.
