The main idea that guided this artwork for school perspective was linear perspective. This was the strategy for drawing interior designs. I started with a rectangle and a horizon line. I also had a vanishing point. Linear perspective is showing depth on a flat surface and this is what I strived for my art to be. There wasn't a mood for this artwork, only a simple light interior drawing. This was one of a hallway at school. It includes the big window panes.

This artwork was made out of graphite and printmaking paper.

The process for creating this artwork started with learning what one-point and two-point perspective was. We learned from drawing one vanishing point and adding boxes. We then added two vanishing points. The next step to learning interior linear perspective was to practice without a reference. Watching a YouTube tutorial in our class I did the interior of the kitchen. The final task was to create a linear perspective of a picture from our school. I had to make sure it was somewhat accurate and represented the photos. To do this I drew a vanishing point, horizon line, and a rectangle. I then only used diagonal lines, horizontal lines, vertical lines, or ones in relation to the vanishing point.
