NOTANS

 



 
Notan is a Japanese design concept focussing on the relative placement of light and dark within a composition.
 It's like ying and yang.
This use of light and dark translates shape and form into flat shapes on a two dimensional surface.
Notan is traditionally presented in paint,pap ink, cut paper, but it's relevant to a host of modern day image making techniques, such a lithography in printmaking and rotoscoping in animation.
Let's have a llok to this video and them it's your turn
 
 
We  can start our work with a  black square, triangle, rectangle or circle to represent shapes.
These are some of our notans examples at grade 5
