After a brief business meeting, Kit Bell AFCA will be giving us a presentation and demonstration on Designing with Negative Space.

To make a strong composition, the negative space must support the design as much or more so than the positive elements. Kit will start with a brief presentation on what negative space is, followed by ways of considering the negative space when designing a work.

Kit will then demonstrate how to use a Gelli plate and simple stencils to put these ideas into practice. For more about Kit and her work, please visit http://www.kitbell.ca/.

For those unable to make the meetings, the presentations are available on the chapter's Youtube channel.
