Where's my Negative Space at?
A. What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it)
Negative space is everything that is behind what your looking at. So, if I told you to draw the negative space where I had just placed a flower in front of an all blue wall, then the negative space is everything that is blue.

B. Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing?
I looked at the tree and then everything behind it. Then cut out everything besides the tree. Same thing for the stool drawing.
