Audrey's negative and positive space art.
What is a Negative Space?
A negative space is the background of a color that makes the art stand out. For example, such as in my art below, if you look at the right side the negative space is the blue outline and positive space is the green.
Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing?
I figured out negative when I understood how the color in the background makes the shadow of the art work stand out. In my stool drawing, I noticed when I shade in the shadows between the stools' legs, it makes the stool pop out and make itself notice that it's a stool.
Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?
So the artist will be able to let their viewers see the subject of the entire work better.
(Do you notice how I am missing a root of the tree on the left side of the drawing? lol, oops.)

Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not?
Yes, seeing the negative space does enhance the drawing. Because when the negative space enhances, the positive space shows up. And the positive space is the object/SUBJECT of the entire art work.
