A. Negative space is the space that is around an object in an image. It helps define the borders of positive space, and brings balance to parts and elements of an image.

B. I found negative space in my cutout by searching for the area that is a boundary to the positive space, and it was the inverse of the positive space.

  • It helps an artist to see in negative space so that they can see both sides of an image, and use the negative space as a tool for their artwork. 

C. Seeing in negative space enhances drawing because the negative space makes the image pop out to the viewer, and can help those viewers see a different aspect of that piece of art.
