Negatives, RSHAW

A. Negative space is drawing what there isn't. for instance, if drawing a pen in negative space, then you draw the space around the pen, not the pen itself.
B. I found negatives in the cut-out by cutting out the shapes in one paper, then pasting the opposite color on the opposite colored paper. In the drawing, I found that drawing the outline of the stool, then shading the areas outside of the lines worked well.
C. It helps an artist to look at negative space drawing because it helps them notice things that they didn't notice before.
