Positive and Negative Space



Photos of a tree-- the live oak in my front yard-- through its noonday shadows. It reminds me of printmaking with positive and negative space. The canvass is my cracked driveway. The sunlight is the paint. The shadow is the engraving.

My daughter Becca and my husband Jimmy talk A LOT about positive and negative space. Becca's on the yearbook staff and enjoys working on page layouts and she loves putting together powerpoint presentations. Jimmy has never seen a church bulletin or power point presentation that didn't need major improvement! I'm all about symmetry and having things lined-up. There's a lot of creative juice in our family, but I don't think it's all running in the same direction!
