Linear perspective-- Artists use orthogonal, vertical, and horizontal lines to figure out the size and shape of geometric objects point perspective-- Type of perspective where lines radiate from two different vanishing points.

Today’s lesson Today, we will practice drawing shapes and letters in 2-Point perspective. We will be doing a LOT of erasing! Two Point Perspective Tutorial Now… Let’s make it even more challenging! Drawing Letters Using Two Point Perspective

Clean Up For our next project, we will use Two Point Perspective to design our names graffitti style! Everyone: Make sure your work and devices are put away! Supplies: Return rulers to the counter, and return any pencils or erasers to me! Trash: Make a loop around the table to make sure all trash is thrown away. Empty bins, if needed. Papers: Stack handouts at your seat for the next class.

Today’s Assignment 1. Today, we will do two things--we will practice the techniques we learned yesterday, and we will submit our One Point Perspective drawings to Google Classroom. 2. One group at a time will use the class Chromebooks or their devices to sign into the Visual Arts classroom and follow the directions to submit an assignment. 3. While I am helping them, others will practice Two Point Perspective drawing using the handouts at each table as a guide. In your notebooks, you must complete at least two practices.

Today’s assignment 1. T oday, you are going to lightly sketch a corner building. 2. The building will fill most of your page. 3. While you are sketching the building, bricks, and architectural details, I will finish helping groups log on to Google Classroom and upload their One Point Perspective drawings.
