POINT OF VIEW
ILLUSION OF DEPTH ILLUSION OF DEPTH Nonlinear Methods Position Overlapping Size Variation Atmospheric Perspective Color Value
Position- place an object higher on the page the to make it seem farther away.
Overlapping- Place one shape on top of another to produce a feeling of depth
Size Variation- smaller objects will seem farther away than larger ones
Atmospheric Perspective- Diminishing color, value, and intensity to give the illusion of distance
Color- Brighter more intense colors appear to move forward
Value- Lighter values tend to recede behind darker ones
PERSPECTIVE Perspective-The method of depicting three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface Linear Perspective- When artists use lines to create depth
Vanishing point Horizon line
