Here’s a simple explanation:
Think Backwards: Instead of painting a leaf, for example, you paint the background around the leaf. This leaves the leaf untouched and bright.
Build Layers: Once the first layer is dry, paint around more shapes, leaving them lighter. Each new layer darkens the background and adds depth.
Plan Ahead: Lightly sketch your shapes with a pencil to guide your painting and keep track of what stays light.
Negative painting is great for creating depth and a unique layered effect, especially in nature-inspired or abstract artwork
