Negative Space!
What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it).
Negative space is the area around the object. If you have apple against a white background, what you can see of the white background if the negative space.
Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your still life drawing?
In my cutout, I matched the positive space to one color and the negative space to another, which helped me block the spaces and know where to cut. In my still lives I started with an object that I could use as a measurement tool and off of that main object I would create the other objects.
Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?
The artist can then define their artwork and look at it and create it in different ways.
Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not?
I feel that negative space makes drawings look cool and more professional. They add something special to drawings.
