An exercise in negative space

May 05, 2021  •  Leave a Comment

I did this with my smallest little people for an exercise on negative space.

I may have mentioned that I'm in an online workshop with Douglas Beasley, so between that and a sudden increase in musical activity around here, I have had to let the little people fend for themselves (which they do very well).

One of our exercises for the week is to create an image with extreme negative space.  I often think of negative space as being large swaths of featureless nothingness - but I suppose it doesn't have to be.  Here we have Oscar, barely an inch tall, exploring the depths of a decaying tree in my backyard.  Perhaps the fly is a traveling companion.
