The Sculpture Lesson is uploaded under Lesson PowerPoints. Use the PowerPoint to answer the following questions.
1) Explain the difference between positive and negative space.Use complete sentences.
Positive space is the area or part of a painting's composition that the subject occupies. For instance, the positive space could be a vase of flowers in a still life painting, a person's face in a portrait, the trees and hills of a landscape painting. The area around the positive space is called the negative space.
2) What is the importance of negative space in a sculpture?
Negative space helps define a subject, and brings balance to a composition.
3) How have you considered negative in your plaster sculpture? Explain.
Well, my sculpture doesn't exactly have negative space, because it's just a sculpture of a head. But if there were negative space, the it would be everything around the face, skin, ie. features.
4) How does your sketch/design/sculpture relate to the Elements of Art? In what way?
It involves many of the lines. Not only for the actual facial features, but for the facial proportions. Which then revolved around the head making a form, a model of a head and not just a face.
There is not value but when complete, and have low lighting, then then value will com into play. And lastly texture.
There are two types of texture in my sculpture. The smooth, delicate, yet solidified skin and the course yet silky hair.
5) (On slide 13) Notice how the sculpture is interesting and different from every angle. What are some ways can you improve your sketch or change your design to make it interesting from every angle?
Have idealized facial features, like high cheek bone, or a low strong jaw, or stylish hair.
