Negative space is one of the most misunderstood things in art. Through 5+ hours of video lessons, I aim to give you a framework for wherever you are in your art journey. Divided into 6 modules and 50+ lessons of hands-on exercises, we go through tools, techniques, and three separate approaches to art to gain mastery of the brush and understanding of how to use negative space.

Understanding negative space teaches you how to make ink art that has impact.

Working in ink forces you to simplify, to really decide what to draw and what to leave out. And great art is, in a sense, about what you leave out. I didn’t create this course to teach you how to draw like me, but to share the lessons I’ve learned about ink, composition, creativity, and the art fundamentals, so you can develop your own way of seeing and making art. It’s not about copying my style, or following tutorials point by point, but rather to open up a whole creative viewpoint through adaptive exercises that will give you a mastery of brush and ink.

Who is @denungeherrholm?

Hi there, I’m Kim Diaz Holm, also called Den Unge Herr Holm. That means “The Young Mister Holm”, and it was the online name I chose for myself when I was still young!

I’m an artist and storyteller from Bergen, Norway, and I tell stories about myth, horror, folklore, politics, and mental health, and release my art for free use.

As an artist I’ve done everything from being a jack-of-all-trades illustrator drawing local kindergarten mascots and birthday caricatures, to drawing hundreds of live concerts and working with extreme metal bands and releases, to selling my own dark art to customers on every continent and to having thousands of people wear my art as boots, T-shirts, and tattoos.

Ever since I started working professionally back in 2004, I’ve also held courses for special needs children and fellow professional artists and anyone else. This course will be the natural evolution of all that learning. I still live in my hometown of Bergen, Norway, with my wife and 2 kids. Like so many artists, I’m still living month to month after 22 years as a professional, trying to retain that balance of working on personal art and projects and doing exciting collaborations with others.
