Negative Space

1. Negative space is all of the space around an object in a drawing or photo. It is everything but the subject or object. Negative space helps form the subject/ object in a photo/ drawing.

 

2. I found negative space in my cut- out because half of it was negative space that helped create the owl. I found negative space in my stool drawing because I used the negative space to actually draw my stool. Without the negative space in both of these art pieces, the object/ subject would not be as defined without the negative space.

3. Negative space helps an artist see the subject in art because the negative space is all of the space around the subject. So, the negative space helps define the subject more because it's the acrual surrounding art of the subject. 

4. Negative space is useful in creating art because it basically forms the subject of the art. The space around the subject helps define and bring out the subject, so this can be useful.
