Terms to know • Perspective • the science of painting and drawing so that objects represented have apparent depth and distance…
Terms to know • Linear Perspective • a system of drawing or painting in which the artist attempts to create the illusion of spatial depth on a two-dimensional surface.
Terms to know • Picture Plane • the imaginary window that frames the things you are attempting to draw or paint
Terms to know • Horizon Line • where the sky meets the earth
Terms to know • Eye Level • the horizontal level in line with your eyes when you’re looking straight ahead
Terms to know • Vanishing Point • the point at which all parallel lines meet and or vanish as they recede into the distance
Terms to know • Converging Lines • parallel lines that appear to approach the same point on the horizon
Terms to know • Overlap • the placement of one object in front of another to create the illusion of depth
Terms to know • Size and Space Variation • the drawing of objects that are in reality equally sized and spaced objects so that they get smaller and closer together as they approach the horizon
Terms to know • Modeling • the shading and texturing of an object in a drawing or painting so that it appears to have form, depth, a front, sides and a back; there is something behind it if you could only see.
Terms to know • Color and Value Change • the use of a lighter value of color in the areas you want to appear further in the distance
Rules of Thumb • Things appear to grow smaller as they recede into the distance • Vertical lines in 1 point perspective will always be parallel to the sides of your picture plane • Horizontal lines will only be parallel to the top and bottom of the page in 1 point perspective
Project Requirements • Draw boxes and fill the entire page. • Box totals: • At least seven boxes drawn using perspective • One box must have an opening and/or be see-through • One set of overlapping boxes
Next • Practice Perspective-Perspective worksheet • Practice Shading-Value Scale worksheet • Perspective Assessment-terms and labeling
Complementary Colors • Complementary colors are pairs of colors which, when combined, cancel each other out. This means that when combined, they produce a grey-scale color like white or black. When placed next to each other, they create the strongest contrast for those particular two colors.
