Shading and Lighting

Terms artists use to represent the illusion of making a 2D drawing appear to have depth.
"When I drew this sphere, the light source was at the top right corner so I shaded the opposite end because the light wasn't hitting it, and highlighted the end closest to the light source because the light was hitting it dead on." Mrs.Woods explained to the class. "This is called Shading and Lighting."

Love You Down No Shade

Love you Down no shade as an expression, can be understood from the expression, “throwing shade” which means publicly denouncing an acquaintance or a friend. Hence, no shade means “no offense meant for what I said.” Whilst the phrase “love you down” still showing admiration/empathy to that someone/person.
“Kiara, you could’ve did better on the exam. Love you down no shade.”
