W3 D2 Negative Space - Ossowski

Negative space is the background of a picture. For example, say you have a picture of a tree, the background would be behind it, like the sky. That is all negative space. I fould negative space in my picture by looking at it symmetrically. The background in this is black, that is the negative space. I find negative space a representative for what could be there. For example, in this picture, if we zoomed out, we could add a background to make it look like a flag on a flagpole. It helps to see in negative space for an artist so they can show emotion in their work. If you look into a picture and it has a dark snowy background, you can assume it’s winter and that something is sad. Negative space can enhance pictures depending how big the negative space is. For example, back to the flagpole picture, that will enhance the picture. However, if you look at the picture below, the negative space does not enhance the picture because it’s so small.
