Negative Space Reflection

What is negative space?

Negative is the extra space not being used. If you drew an image and colored it in, the negative space would be what’s not colored in or, if you drew an image and didn’t color it in, but instead colored in the outside, the colored in part would be the negative space.


How did i find the negative space in my cut out?

The positive space is what was cut out, the dark pink and the negative space is the light pink.


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

It helps you see the symmetry and difference between the two images


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

I think it does depending on the image. For the one i did i could clearly see that it was a tree and it looks good. But for others, it might need shading for you to completely understand what the image is.
