PERSPECTIVE

PERSPECTIVE EXPLORATION

Brief Outline

This project was a technical project that focused on perspective and how to depict it. The project allowed us to depict perspective with every day objects, such as small figurines to telephone poles. Multimedia was used, such as graphite pencil, pen and inkwash, which we used for the very first time. One, Two and Three point perspectives were introduced to us and we were encouraged how to accurately depict all of these perspectives. The main aim of this project is to learn how to accurately depict perspective at any angle with any object.

Rationale

This project helped me become comfortable with depicting perspective with different forms. I approached the project with sensitivity and precision. I felt that I started off this project with a bit of a struggle but as I carried on I became more comfortable with perspective and I felt comfortable doing the ink wash drawings. I enjoyed working with the ink and it was so much fun experimenting with a new medium.
