Liner Perspective

This project is called linear perspective. For this project, I drew three linear perspectives. The first one we did was the project on the right, and for that, we had to draw five 3-D shapes on each side if the horizon line. The 2nd project we did was the one in the middle and for that, we had to draw a room with a bunch of 3-D objects and flooring/ceiling tiles. The last project, which is on the left was the final one which showcased our overall skills in linear perspective. For the project, we went into the school hallway and had to draw one of the hallways and everything in it. For all of these 3 drawings, we connected all of our lines to a vanishing point, to make them 3-D. Materials I used for these drawings were graphite pencils and a ruler. I used the ruler to connect my edges to the vanishing point. The vanishing point is your eye level. I chose to draw that specific end of the hallway for my project because I wanted to incorporate doors in my drawing, and for the middle drawing I decided to make a narrow room so it would have more depth, and my furniture could go front to back instead of side to side.

Techniques that are showcased in my artwork are liner perspective and 3-D shapes. I used a vanishing point to have a place where all of my lines would connect to. I also drew a square in the middle and left drawing to draw the back wall of what I see. My projects evolved because at first, all I knew was how to draw 3-D shapes that connected to a vanishing point, then I was able to incorporate furniture, and lastly, for my final project, I was able to create a linear perspective hallway.

The meaning behind this project is that I learned how to be able to use a vanishing point to create a 3-D room, that has depth, so you can tell what is farther away from you, and what is closer to you. This project relates to my life because I am really going to incorporate what I learned now into my drawings because I can show different values, meaning whats closer and whats farther away from the vanishing point.
