Drawing and painting negative spaces:
Negative space is the areas of the picture that are the background spaces surrounding the main subject (positive space) of the image. These are the shapes and spaces that define the subject and various elements within a drawing? Painting or photo.
As an exercise in negative space drawing and painting, choose one or more of the photos below to paint.
Forget about the subject of the image and concentrate purely on the shapes and angles that make up the picture plane. Leave person or subject as a blank space, only adding tone and detail in the negative spaces. You should produce some pleasing drawings and paintings as a result.
Drawing and painting negative spaces helps you learn how to forget about the recognizable objects and features in your pictures and instead focus on a truer representation of the visual world.
You may draw, color or paint the photos. Do as many drawings or paintings as you like. The more you practice seeing negative space the better you will develop your eye for shapes and skills for drawing and painting. Focus only on the shapes and their colors.
You may draw or paint in the positive subject after you paint the background shapes. Do not add details. We will let these dry and add details later on.
