Assignment 10 – One Point Perspective – Drawing from life

Also be sure to do the reading CHAPTER 4 of creative perspective.

Carefully choose a scene which will allow you to practice your one point perspective skills. This can be from life of imagination… but it MUST feel realistic.  Using the ope point perspective system we learned today, draw the scene.  Be sure to choose something with a strong vanishing point, this can be indoor or outdoor.

Make careful use of your view finder, and your measuring and observation skills to draw the composition, then through careful observation of light and shadow, use the 5 Value System to render the forms.  Be sure to have a full range of value in your drawing.

• Lightly TONE your drawing paper before beginning drawing to a middle value.
• Draw this composition at your highest level of skill!

Tip: SPRAY the drawing with Aerosol Hairspray or Workable Fixatiff Spray when complete so they don’t smudge!
