1. VALUES &
NEGATIVE SPACE

2. VALUE
-different shades of grey between white and black.
-creates form with light and shadows.
-Tone is when GREY is added to color
-color has value

3. Valuescale:
a grey scale with a developed range of
values
from 0 (black) to 10 (white) *for our
purposes

12. All Value transitions
should be handled either
as a soft edge or a
hard edge.

16. NEGATIVE SPACE
-empty space around an object or form; also called white space
-important to utilize for accuracy of positive space
-should be explored as a design element and compositional tool

20. KEY
High Key-using values towards the upper range on the scale
Low Key-using values towards the lower range on the scale
Contrast-Comparison of strong unlike qualities
such as value, size, etc to create emphasis or focal points

22. DESIGN PROJECT:
-Draw negative spaces
surrounding a figure in action.
-Once negative shapes are
identified, divide the image into
equal thirds (can also add
additional divisions for design)
-Using pencil, shade each area
as : high key values, low key
values, and a range of all
values.
