This week's assignment: Positive/Negative Flowers
This is a simple exercise that uses positive and negative shapes and lines.
1. Students will have received an 5.25" x 8" piece of black paper for this assignment.
2. Using a ruler, lightly draw a 1" border on three edges of the black paper. It should look like there is a square touching the bottom edge of the paper.
3. The inside black square is cut and flipped up, and the two black pieces are glued to the white paper as shown.
3. Use a black sharpie or black marker to draw a vase in the lower white space. Flowers may be drawn on the black square with a white colored pencil or white crayon. This is one of those projects that just needs a simple, simple drawing. Less is more!
Below is my example! You may copy it exactly or elaborate on your own version of the vase with flowers.
