Final Stamp Design

The three words I chose to describe me are rowing, scouts and busy. This symbolizes me because those two activities take up a majority of my life. That also describes why I used the word busy, because like I said they take up all of my life. I used the oar to stand for rowing, the hand which shows the scout salute, for scouting, and the square on the wrist is a watch showing that I have no time. (0:00 is meant to be engraved on the watch)

You can use negative and positive space to give your art more dimension and contrast. You can also use to show what you want to be the main focal point. In my piece the positive space is the outline and the details of my piece. What originally confused me about negative and positive space was what I needed to cut out. Sometimes it was hard to determine which was which, so therefore it confused me when cutting things out. I learned that negative and positive space is used to enhance art in many ways.
