Perspective Drawing

When starting a perspective drawing, what is the first step you should complete?

• Place a dot in the center of your paper.

What is the dot called that all of the perspective lines lead to?

• A polka dot.

• A vanishing point.

When connecting perspective lines to the vanishing point what tool should you use?

• You don't need a tool, just freehand draw it.

• A square tile.

• A ruler.

• A compass.

Should your perspective lines to the vanishing point go through the shape that you are drawing them from?

• No, this ruins the illusion.

• Yes, the more line the better.

When the technical drawing is done, what drawing technique will help to enhance your illusion?

• Nothing, your drawing is now complete!

• Shading darker in the areas nearest to the vanishing point and going lighter as you lead out to the squares.

• Shading darker starting from the squares and going lighter as you head towards the vanishing point.

• Using pattern will help to enhance your illusion.
