Element Print

​

Reflection (two sentences on each core value relating to such project):

Inquiry:
How does this project reflect our intuitive knowledge in both art class and bio-chem?

This project can lead to us exploring new possibilities and questions in cooperative acts in other projects.

Research:
There was substantial research in this project especially listening to Ms. Hull to know how everything is done.
We all had to go online to research our element to have an equilibrium of everything we could use it in during art class. 

Collaboration:
I found myself asking for help and working together with many other classmates.

If someone had a good idea for a different element than their own they would go and tell that person who had the element. 

Presentation: 
Although not an assignment I saw a lot of kids in the hallway and at lunch using this project to practice their presenting skills.
This project gave us a good idea how presenting works because if you have a bad eject then you will have a bad presentation. 

Reflection:
Some of my classmates and I all sat down at lunch and thought on what we learned from this project due to the fact that if we don't understand what the point of everything was then we wouldn't be able to take anything from it. 

I incorporated this project in life lessons like to push yourself harder and surprisingly in reflective thought I came up with many that could help us in the tough journey that lies ahead.

Negative Space

Posted by Mitchell Berven-Stotz in Art - Freshman - Hull on

A. Negative space is the area around and between objects. It uses the space around something to show it, without inner detail.

B. In my drawing, I found negative space by replacing the outer portions of the drawing with a mirror of the inner, so that they both reflected the outside of the object.

C. It helps an artist to see in negative space because that makes them aware of the surrounding area of an object, even if they aren't shown. It also helps them display objects without relying on inner details.

D. Seeing in negative space does not enhance drawings, it just is a different way of drawing, a different style.

Tamira Bell Negative Space

Posted by Tamira Bell in Art - Freshman - Hull on

1. Negative space is the empty space where no objects are present. It mainly pertains to the background of a pice of art.

2. In my cut, I found the negative space by looking at my template. The dark shade on the template was the negative space. I found the negative space in my drawing by shading every thing that was the background as the negative space.

3. It helps an artist to see in negative space because negative space can separate the the medium or focus from the background. 

4. The negative and positive space does enhance the drawing because it helps put the focus on what the artist is trying to portray. The contrast in colors draws attention to the main focus.

Ameer Holmes: Negative Space Art

Posted by Ameer Holmes in Art - Freshman - Hull on

​Negative Space is the drawing of a set of objects as if relative space was non existant. The objects you are drawing has no visible connection points and nothing differentiating the objects. You are only drawing the outline of the objects in a negative space drawing. To get negative space in my cutout I  used a template and cut it with two pieces of construction paper. I then glued those two pieces onto a green piece of printer paper. To find negative space in my still live drawing I tried to figure out where the figures would connect before I drew them so that I didn't have to connect them together and erase the lines. If you know how to draw negative space as an artist you are more capable of seeing how objects react and menuever in a set space.  Seeing negative space would enhance your drawings skills if you study it and know how to do it well because it could teach you how things react and menuever.

Michelle Friedman, Negative Space

Posted by Michelle Friedman in Art - Freshman - Hull on

In art class we have been practicing negative space for the past few weeks. Negative space (in art) is simply the area surrounding an object; not the inside or the details, just the outside. You could call it the silhouette.

In my drawings negative space is apparent. The way I went about drawing and understanding the negative space in my drawings simply by identifying the objects and then looking at the outline of them. The inside of the outline is the positive space, and the outside of the outline is negative (it is the dark part). In my cut-out piece, I found the negative space in the different colors. The green and the pink colors are very contrasting, therefore, it is easy to find the positive/negative.

For artists, negative is very useful because it makes it easier for them to delineate the figure of the object. Seeing the negative space for observers is just as important because it helps them define the artwork as well.

Negative Space Drawings and Cut-Outs

Posted by Ava Olsen in Art - Freshman - Hull on

"Negative Space"

Negative space is the entire area around a drawn figure. If you’re drawing a chair, you would draw a chair, and color in everything around the chair, except the chair itself. You wouldn’t add details or anything, you would just have a blank figured outline of a chair, and have everything around it colored in.

In my cut-out, it’s apparent that I have negative space, because on one side, there is a completely normal cut-out, and on the other side there’s reversed color. I used the colors pink and green, so everytime there’s pink on one half, there’s green on the other. In my still life drawing, I have negative space as well because the drawing of the main object is completely blank, but everything besides the figure is colored in. 

I think seeing in negative space does enhance drawings because it makes them pop out. I think it also exercises your mind to try and figure out what you’re looking at. I find the negative space drawings very interesting.

Negative Space Reflection : Brittany Cooper

Posted by Brittany Cooper in Art - Freshman - Hull on

A.) Negative space is the contrast between the light and dark space in an object. It is almost it's shadow or reflection.

B.) 1.) In cut out, once you trace and cut out your piece, the "scraps" or leftover pieces from your cut out is the negative space. (2.) In my still life drawing I would simply draw the object as if it was just by itself. Then shade all around the object so that all you see is the object. 

C.) It helps a artist to know negative space because negative space is like drawing with a certain amount of light. 

D.) Yes, because negative space can make a object stand out form its surroundings.

Negative Space

Posted by Michaela Prell in Art - Freshman - Hull on

Negative space is the absence of something. It is drawing what is not there, instead of what is there. I found negative space in my cut out in the areas where I had cut out parts of my tree and put it on the opposite side of the paper to complete the picture. In my still life drawing - which I had to at home because I was out the day that we did it in class - I found the negative space by drawing the absence of what I was drawing. Using negative space helps to establish positive space. If an artist can show negative space, than they will be better at making positive space. I believe that seeing negative will enhance drawings, because it will make the contrast in the art stronger.

August Polite- negative space

Posted by August Polite in Art - Freshman - Hull on

​    A. What is negative space 
Negative space is the area around an object, opposed to the area within the object. 

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

I drew the area around the chair by filling in that space with pencil strokes. I symbolized the actual space by leaving it blank. 

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

Because the object floating in the air can seem disjointed, it is good to include an environment. 

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

It can in the right time/place.

William Derry: Negative Space Reflection

Posted by William Derry in Art - Freshman - Hull on

Negative space in art is the space between two images. Negative space is the space around an image. Furthermore negative space is taking an image and mirroring the image on another piece of paper. I found negative space in my cut out picture by looking for empty space in my drawing and trying to mirror the picture on the other piece of paper. In my still life drawing I found negative space by trying to see the two images as two complete different images.  My still life drawing had an chair, three stools and a hand truck. The three objects were close together but I tried to draw them separately. I found space between them by doing that. It helps an artist to see negative space because it helps the artist get their point across. What I mean by this is the artist can make the drawing more realistic by having negative space in their drawing. Furthermore the artist wants the viewer of their drawing to focus on a certain thing in their drawing. I believe that seeing drawings in negative space enhances the drawing. The reason being is the drawing comes more to life and it makes the drawing better. Overall, negative space is important to making a great drawing.
