Notan: Japanese Light & Dark Designs


Notan is the Japanese word for the interaction or harmony between dark and light.
 
Students learned how to make a black and white collage out of a square and learned about positive and negative space. Some people call it an “expanded square.” 
Students who were finished, created some Notan-inspired designs using the polish paper techniques they had learned earlier this session.
 Our last class for this session is next Wednesday, March 28th.   All artwork will be going home with your child then.  You are welcome to come to class at 3:15 if you'd like to be part of a mini art show of all our work.
