Negative Painting Exercise

Today we tried our hand on an exercise I had done first time in 2007, the year I started painting. I can’t believe that it is such a long time ago.

All students came to class with a canvas prepared with black Gesso. It was easy to sketch up the negative lines of the artwork with some white pencil and every student approached it in a different strategy. But the we got confused which line was what and some of us had to correct the initial design to see the clearer picture.IMG_0928IMG_0927IMG_0926IMG_0925

 

and here is the original artwork that inspired us to the negative painting exercise
