I'm going to play around one last time with my field. This time I'm going to try to take
a bigger look and divide it in bigger areas. So I have my black square and I'm going to
cut out a space here, but I have this. Now if you put the two together, you start to
go and you've got a shape cut out of one, you start to wonder, "Well, do I have white
shapes on black paper or black paper on white shapes"? You saw me put the black paper on
so you know it's that way. But you just don't know, and that's kind of the fun of thinking
about your field as something other than "Well, I want to draw a picture of flowers, and hey,
the rest of it is background". You can do so much more with it and create so many more
ideas with it. If I put this here like that, again we start to question, "Did I cut out
part of my black shape, or did my white shape kind of come into and sort of impinge on the
black space"? And it's those questions that you need to look at for yourself, you need
to play around with for yourself, and you'll get a lot more interesting results, I think,
if you just go for it with the black paper and the white paper.
