Negative space is the space between and around the main subject of an art piece. It is also known as the space that is blank on art pieces. It is not the main focal point of it, but it is more like I said, the space around it.

In my photo I used the white space as the negative space. When flipping the image to the other side you can really tell the meaning and how to find negative space. You flipped the negative space on one side and made it the opposite color on the other side.

Negative space allows artist to set boundries of positive space or the main point of their art. It also allows artist to show balance and contrast in an image by using two different colors to show the difference in negative and positive space.

I would say that seeing in negative space does enhance drawings. Like I said above, you can see the contrast in a drawing or photo when you see in negative space. Therefore it is more enhanced through negative space.
