Negative Space

Posted by Olivia Mack in Art - Freshman - Hull on

​    A. What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it)
The negative space is more focused on the drawling then the outline.The line is also more visible. When you draw negative space the outline of the image is more visible. 

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

I found in my cutout by cutting around the template with the paper behind it. I then looked at the two different colors and flip the negative space to look at the picture. 

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

It helps an artist to see in negative space because they can make the picture look more real and make it pop with more details. 

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

Seeing in negative space does enhance drawings because it makes the details stand out and overall it makes the picture more attractive to look at.

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

-  Negative space is the space that make the object appear.  

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

  - I had to cut things out to find the negative space in my cut out and then glue it on the opposite side. In real life, I decided to draw the object first and then draw the negative space later.

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

- So there objects look nice.

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

- Seeing negative space enhances the drawing because it makes it look more real instead of just in space.

​Questions: 

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

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

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

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


Answer: 

      Negative space is the space that you see between the objects you drew. To find a negative space you basically have to look for a background. Your background is your negative space. You cut out positive space and then visual that when you fold your paper your drawing will look full. Negative space helps an artist to find a subjects so your eyes can see it better. Seeing in negative space enhance drawings because you can see more details and how drawing looks.

A. What is negative space (explain this concept to a fourth grader that has never heard of it)
    Negative space is basically the part of  drawing that is left after you draw it.  It is the shapes that are made from the blank spaces.  

B. Explain how you found negative space in 1. your cut out?, 2. in your still life drawing?
     I found negative space by looking at what was part of the actual opaque object, such as the red part of the chair, or the lines of the window frames in the cut out.  Then I looked at the parts that i saw through the holes of the opaque object, such as the holes in the chair, or the glass parts of the windows in the house.  
C. Why does it help an artist to see in negative space?
     Seeing in negative space can help an artist because it can allow them to see their drawings in different ways, and play with what the viewer sees, sometimes allowing it to be two different things.  
D. Does seeing in negative space enhance drawings, why or why not?
     I think seeing in negative space does enhance drawings, because it can give them more depth and let people see them in multiple ways.

Negative Space Reflection/Blog:

Posted by Jade Schweitzer in Art - Freshman - Hull on

​Negative space drawings are darings where one specific object in the drawing is shaded black while the rest is left white. I could figure out which object should be shaded in my cut out (the tree, in this piece the shaded or 'black' part would be the orange background) because when we started our projects we had a reference sheet with the picture we where creating. So I traced the borders of my tree and cut out the inside of the shaded lines. Creating a stencil, so then I took my green paper and put it under my self made stencil, tracing the lines. Turning my green paper into a sketched picture of a tree. Then all I did was cut out the tree accordingly. Once all that was done I pasted my pieces on according to the opposite side of the paper which you can see in the picture below. For my sketches in my book (the pencil sketches) I drew my chair and my cup then I just shaded my background to define the negative spaces. Negative space helps the artist's eye see all aspects of the sketch they are working with. A classic example of this is Rubin's Vase. This is just a picture of a yellow vase with a white background. Although- if you make it a negative picture by coloring the vase white and the background black you see that it is really an optical illusion, with two faces looking at each other. In short it gives you a full unadulterated view of what your working with. Seeing in negative space in fact enhances the artist's and viewer's comprehension of the art. I say this because you can look at something in color and you see whats there, but if you take the color away...you see each little pen stroke, detail, and quirk giving the work more personality and originality.

One point perstective Ms.hull room

Posted by Pilar Carroll in Art - Freshman - Hull on

a. What is one thing that your learned specifically that you did not know before.

I learned that I can actually draw, and I learned how easy one point perspective is. 

b. How did leaning this thing make your drawings better.

Now I'm able to draw rooms, and Im a better artest. My art now looks correct. 

c. If you did this assignment again, what would you do differently?


I would be quicker, I took a lot of time on little details, so I didn't finish on time. 
d. What is your advice to someone who has never drawn a one point perspective drawing before?
My advice is to just listen to What Ms.Hull says, and you will understand what she's saying.
e. What resource helped you the most and why?
Ms.Hull help me the most, also the website she gave us. 

Final Perspective Drawing

Posted by Jordan Meriwether in Art - Freshman - Hull on

I learned that you need to erase to make your project look better. If you do not erase then you will be stuck with bad perspective, I also learned that you may not notice bad perspective until the end.

This project taught me the values of perspective art, and how a  picture can look weird if it is done incorrectly. It also taught me the values of the  orthogonal, and how without it perspective would be lost.


If I were to redo this project I would most likely have started by planning, instead of rushing in to the main picture. By planning I would have been more prepared in what the end project would look like, instead of just going with the flow.


My advice:

  • When you find the orthogonal start to plan where thing will go.

  • Go to the spot with the best view of the area.

  • Stay focused

My greatest help was my fathers are tools and his grandfather's set to they helped me get the right angle every time. (no pun intended)

Final Perspective Drawing

Posted by Felix D'Hermillon in Art - Freshman - Hull on

1. One thing that I learned before this project is that perspective is just a bunch of straight lines pointed at the vanishing point. I also learned about the vanishing point, birds eye view, and the worms eye view.


2. Learning this technique helped me because I am now able to draw perspective and make it look like a real room that has shadowing, depth, and color.


3. If I were to redo this project I would draw the images on every tile.


4. My advice to somebody that has never done one point perspective drawing is that you should not expect it to be perfect. Not in the beginning and not at the end. You are going to do a lot of erasing through out this project.


5. The resource that helped me the most  were Mrs. Hull and Kevin Courtney because they both helped me when ever I reached out for their help.

Final Perspective Drawing

What is one thing that your learned specifically that you did not know before.

One thing I learned specifically that I did not know before was in general terms, how to draw things in one point perspective.


 How did leaning this thing make your drawings better.

Learning this thing made my drawing better because it added depth and detail to a drawing that would usually be boring to look at.

 If you did this assignment again, what would you do differently?

If I did this assignment again, I would definitely add more detail such as the board or more tables and stools, and possibly even more details to the ceiling or floor.

 What is your advice to someone who has never drawn a one point perspective drawing before?

My advice to someone trying one point perspective drawing for the first time is to get help if your stuck! Do not expect help to come by itself if your are lost, you have to ask for help. 

What resource helped you the most and why?

Your example on moodle of your drawing helped me understand the basics of a one point perspective drawing and therefore I could create the drawing once I understand the background information of how to do so.

Final Perspective Drawing

Posted by Adnan El-Bedawi in Art - Freshman - Hull on

a. One thing that I learned specifically had to do with the different view points and angles on drawings. I learned that if you are looking at something on the left side of the drawing, then it is showing its right side, and vice versa on the right side of the drawing.

b. Learning this made my drawings better because now I know how to make more realistic looking drawings using the vanishing point and how to make orthogonal lines.

c. If I did this assignment again, I would find a way to add better shading to the drawing. Also, I would use something else to take a picture.

d. My advice to someone who has never drawn a one point perspective drawing is to always start your lines on a new object with the vanishing point, and let the size of the room guide you on the size and shape of the object that you're drawing.

e. The resource that helped me the most was the tutorial on how to draw the room because even after I finished the tutorial if I got stuck I went back to it to see how certain line were made in it and it let me get a good start on my drawing.
