EricksonAnother must-have for my classroom. These activities teach the positive-negative principle of design in beautiful ways.

Great tutorial on negative/positive designBy DebbieKThis was a great tutorial on notan design. complete with exercises to try. I always knew I loved the balance between positive and negative space. but never knew why. or why some of my art is more successful than others. Its a short book. but very detailed.
