1
Perspective Drawing Uses line to show depth, form, and deep space Uses vanishing points on a horizon line in city and landscapes Vertical lines, horizontal lines, and diagonal lines
2
What is perspective? Perspective is: Where your eyes are looking from…
3
Renaissance Re-birth of Arts and Science Real looking art (like a photograph) Disguised brush stroke and marks One Point Perspective Vanishing point Horizontal, Vertical, Diagonal lines The Last Supper (DaVinci)

The Last Supper
5
Look at the implied diagonal lines.
6
Here’s some more Renaissance Art.
7
Two point example
8
One Point Example
9
One Point Perspective Start with a horizon line and vanishing point. Then draw a shape (square) above the horizon line Horizon line is Eye level.
10
One Point Perspective Then draw lines with your ruler, from the corners of your square to the vanishing point. Go all the way to the V.P.
11
One point perspective In the space between the top two diagonal lines, draw a Vertical line Vertical means straight up and down. This creates a corner for the next step.
12
One point perspective From that new corner, make a horizontal line between the bottom two diagonal lines. This will create the bottom of the Form.
13
One point REVIEW Horizon line Vanishing point A single shape Lines from the corners. A vertical line A horizontal line And the you have a 3/D FORM
14
One Point Review
15
Two Point Perspective Start with a single line Draw lines to both V.P.’s from the top and bottom Two vertical lines A line to the V.P. from each new corner. And you have a 3/D Form from a different perspective (Turned)
16
Two point Perspective Two vanishing points on the horizon line. Start your form with a single vertical line.
17
Two Point Perspective Draw a line to each vanishing point from the top and bottom of that Vertical line. These lines are the top and bottom of the Form you’re creating.
18
Two Point Perspective Now draw a vertical line between the top and bottom diagonal lines (on the right).
19
Two Point Perspective Draw another vertical line on the other side, between the lines leading to point A. These lines represent where your form ends.

Two Point Perspective
21
Above Eye Level Draw a vertical line on the left and above the horizon line (eye level) This will be the corner of your form.
22
Above Eye Level Again, draw a line to each vanishing point from the top and bottom of this vertical line. These are the top and bottom corners of your form.
23
Above Eye Level Draw two vertical lines (one on each side of the first vertical line). Between the top and bottom diagonal lines.
24
Above Eye Level Two more diagonal lines are needed. Draw the first from the new corner on the right to the A vanishing point.
25
Above Eye Level Draw the other diagonal line from the corner on the left to vanishing point B. They cross at the rear corner of your form (completing the bottom side)
26
Below Eye Level
27
Two Point Review Horizon line and two vanishing points One vertical line Diagonal lines to vanishing points Two vertical lines for the ends (If needed) Two more diagonal lines to the vanishing points for the bottom of your form.
