Classroom Perspective

Hard at Work in Class/ 2022

For this perspective project we had to work in two point perspective. This is when lines of an object converge on two vanishing points instead on one. We first started by practicing this kind of perspective with graphite on a large piece of paper. This way we could over extend lines and put the vanishing points further away than the pre-drawn box. Once we felt comfortable we moved on to doing a wash version from the same spot.

Library Perspective

Library Hall/2022

This project was all about practicing perspective. We had to work with one point perspective which is a drawing method that shows how objects appear to get smaller as they get further away, converging towards a single ‘vanishing point’ on the horizon line. We were instructed to find the horizon line and pick a vanishing point in the hallway at the Clarkston Library. Using graphite we sketched out the horizon like and then worked on adding in the bookshelves, chairs, and other objects in the hallway on the page. Unfortunately this class was cut short by the building alarm instructing us to evacuate the building.
