August Polite- negative space

Posted by August Polite in Art - Freshman - Hull on

​    A. What is negative space 
Negative space is the area around an object, opposed to the area within the object. 

    B. Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your still life drawing?

I drew the area around the chair by filling in that space with pencil strokes. I symbolized the actual space by leaving it blank. 

    C. Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?

Because the object floating in the air can seem disjointed, it is good to include an environment. 

    D. Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not?

It can in the right time/place.
