Harness the power of negative space!
Breathe new life into your art through negative painting. Linda Kemp shares her techniques for using the strength of negative space - the areas not occupied by subject matter - to create alluring pieces of work.
Negative painting is an intriguing, alternative approach in which the subject is created by painting around the object rather than by painting the object itself. Using this innovative method, artists can create striking and interesting works of art of a broad variety of subject matter. And what's more, working in the negative isn't hard to master - it's just a simple shift in the way you see!
This book and video set provides a comprehensive guide to evoking more passion in your paintings. With Linda as your personal tutor, you'll learn how to take hold of the often overlooked areas of a painting through interactive, easy to follow elements.
Both beginners and advanced artists will benefit from the negative painting concepts presented in this guide. Using landscapes, florals, and motifs from nature, you will gain the skills and knowledge to make your next watercolour your most striking work yet.
DVD includes an extra 5 mins of tuition from Linda.
