A Balanced Kitchen

For this week's assignment, I traced random items found in my kitchen on black paper and than cut out the pattern with an exacto knife.  I used the negatives to make a second piece.  This project was a blast and really easy to get into!  It really got me thinking about negative space when I was first laying out my design and I found myself purposely trying to "shape" the space so it would interesting for my second design. 

This was my first piece- the postive.

This is the negative.

These are the two together.
