This is the only title on the market that gives readers a comprehensive look at negative painting. In visual art, negative space refers to the areas within a painting not occupied by subject matter, but that are important to the artist as parts of the overall design. Negative painting, working with the areas around a subject, is a method artists can use to create striking, alluring works of art. Linda Kemp shows beginning and advanced artists how to harness the power of these often overlooked areas surrounding a painting’s focal point.
Watercolor Painting Outside the Lines is brimming with easy-to-follow, interactive elements, including:
• Step-by-step techniques, exercises and projects
• Do-it-yourself tests and worksheets
• Troubleshooting suggestions and secrets
• Straightforward diagrams for color and design
Whether they want to paint florals, landscapes or patterns in nature, readers will come away with the skills they need to make their next work more striking than ever!
Linda Kemp’s award-winning artwork has appeared in International Artist, Watermedia Focus and Preview Magazine. She has taught painting for the past 20 years and currently lives in Ontario, Canada.
