Artist Used Negative Space To Create Clever Illustrations And The Results Are Amazing

People use different techniques when it comes to art just so they can get different results that appeal to the human eye.

One of these techniques is using negative space. Basically, negative space is the background that is used around the main object in an image. For two-toned images, let me explain the example of using black and white. The darker tone, which is black, is used for the object, and the lighter tone, which is white, is used in the background. This forms a silhouette on the background and gives the object more dimensions. Sometimes the roles are reversed too, as you will see in the images below. This technique can create a lot of magical images even though it is very simple.
The images below are taken from book covers, ads, illustrations, and posters where negative space is used. It is most certainly a very beautiful and simple technique. The list has some award-winning campaigns, public service announcements, and best-selling covers as well. Scroll down below to see them:
