These Clever Photos Combine Objects, Shadows, and Drawings

Belgian artist Vincent Bal has a fantastic ongoing project titled Shadowology. Each photo is a clever mix of an object, its shadow, and a hand-drawn illustration that creates a whimsical scene.

“It all started with the shadow of a teacup,” says Bal. “Now I can’t help seeing things in shadows and everyday objects.”

You can follow along with Bal’s work on his Facebook page and on Instagram. Prints of his illustrations are also available through Etsy.
