Project #1: DRAWING is...

What is Drawing? According to Webster's dictionary, drawing is defined as “the art or technique of representing an object or outlining a figure, plan, or sketch by means of lines." This, of course, is usually the first thing many people think of when it comes to drawing, I was and still am one of them.  Yet, after really contemplating the word drawing and looking through various definitions, I’ve come to find that it's meaning isn’t art specific, it engulfs a lot of different positions.  Drawing isn’t just about the line one puts on paper, it’s about what you take from that line.  Minimalist artist Sol LeWitt once said, “When words such as painting and sculpture are used, they connote a whole tradition, thus placing limitations on the artist who could be reluctant to make art that goes beyond the limitations."       I think the same thing goes for the word drawing , drawing has always been seen as this one method used in th...

N egative space  helps to define the boundaries of  positive space  and brings balance to a composition. The negative space is defined by the edges of the positive space and the frame or border (the third element).  Thus, part of our negative space is bound by the frame and another part is bounded by the positive space.  S...
