Notan is the Japanese word that means the use of light and dark
In this assignment we will use the first two art elements - line and shape.
Some ideas/words to know -
Positive Space and Negative space.
Positive shapes occupy positive space.
The area around positive shapes, the background, is negative space. A solid piece of sculpture occupies space, and makes the space around it come to life. In fact, sculptors think of the entire composition, the interplay between solid and space, when they create a work of art.
In this diagram, the negative shapes are as clear and distinct as the positive shapes. occupy positive space. The area around positive shapes, the background, is negative space.

Another thing to think about is the difference between symmetry and asymmetry.
So now -
We are going to start with a small black square and make a pattern with leaf motifs. Start with a practice small one and then we might move on to a larger one.
