Negative Space

Posted by Haneef Nelson in Art - 9 - Hull on Monday, April 23, 2012 at 1:11 pm

​What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it)
- The negative space is the dark space around the picture.  

Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing?

-In my cut out I saw my negative space by looking at the dark spaces and in my stool drawing I saw negative space in the empty spaces like where there was empty space between the chairs.

 Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?

- It helps them figure out what exactly what they need to draw. 

 Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not

-Yes because it easier for me to see what I'm drawing.

A. What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it)

Negative space is the space between object/parts in a picture

 

B. Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing?

In my cut out I found my negative space by separating my darker areas on my paper to my light areas. Then using construction paper to mimic  that outline. Once I did that I just placed the cut out pieces on one side and the whole pieces on the other. On my chair drawing I just found the space in between the chairs, stool, and caution sign.

 

C. Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?

It helps the artist determine what perspective the picture needs to be drawn from. (bird’s eye, eye level, and worm’s eye

 

D. Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not

Seeing negative space enhances the drawing by bring out the details and thing that should be seen as 3 dimensional can be enhanced

Audrey's negative and positive space art.

Posted by Audrey Pham in Art - 9 - Hull on Monday, April 23, 2012 at 12:47 pm

​What is a Negative Space?
A negative space is the background of a color that makes the art stand out. For example, such as in my art below, if you look at the right side the negative space is the blue outline and positive space is the green.

Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing?
I figured out negative when I understood how the color in the background makes the shadow of the art work stand out. In my stool drawing, I noticed when I shade in the shadows between the stools' legs, it makes the stool pop out and make itself notice that it's a stool. 

Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?
So the artist will be able to let their viewers see the subject of the entire work better.



Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not?

Yes, seeing the negative space does enhance the drawing. Because when the negative space enhances, the positive space shows up. And the positive space is the object/SUBJECT of the entire art work. 



(Do you notice how I am missing a root of the tree on the left side of the drawing? lol, oops.)

True Negative Space

A. What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it) Negative spacing is the spacing between the object you are drawing. The area around the thing you are drawing creates the art for you.

B. Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing? I found the negative spacing in the cut out using the paper. I didn't really see the negative space in the stool drawing.

C. Why does it help an artist to see in negative space? It could help an artist if they can see negative space because it will become easier to draw because the background will create some of the drawing. 

D. Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not Seeing negative space does help drawing because it can put more definition in a drawing.

​A. What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it)
Negative Space is when you shade in the blank parts of your drawing, usually where nothing is. Like in a drawing of a chair, in between the legs would be shaded, and that is considered negative spave.

B. Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your stool drawing?

I found negative space in my stool drawing, by shading in the parts of the stool that have nothing there, like in between the legs of the stool. I found negative space in my cut out because I saw the dark parts of the bird, and I cut them out, because that is what you had to trace, and  cut out to make the cut out.

C. Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?

It helps an artist to see negative space, because it helps the artist tell which part of the drawing is real, and can be touched, and what part is just air.
D. Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not?
Yes, seeing negative space enhances drawings, because they look more professional, and it helps the person looking at the drawing, to see what is air, and what is not.

Negative Space - Angelina Pingitore

Posted by Angelina Pingitore in Art - 9 - Hull on Monday, April 23, 2012 at 12:11 pm

Negative space is part of a image were space surrounds an object in a image

How I found my Negative space is seeing the dark parts on my cut out and using it as a shadow.

It helps the artist because it is easer to see the dark space as not part of the image and as a shadow .

Yes because it is easer to draw seeing the negative space it makes your image "pop"
