Perspective

What is the main purpose of perspective drawing?

• To create the illusion of space and depth on a flat surface

• To make drawings look less realistic

• To use as many colors as possible

• To draw only animals

What is a one point perspective also known as?

• X mark

• Horizon line

• Vanishing point

• Two point perspective

What is the first step in creating a one point perspective drawing?

• Drawing a big X on the paper

• Creating a horizon line

• Drawing trees

• Making buildings

What does the horizon line represent in the drawing?

• The edge of the paper

• The vanishing point

• The bottom of the ocean

• The top of the sky

What happens to objects as they get closer to the vanishing point?

• They get larger

• They change color

• They get smaller

• They disappear completely

What tool is suggested to use for making straight lines, but not necessary?

• Scissors

• A marker

• A ruler

• A pencil

How should the lines for sidewalks be drawn in relation to the vanishing point?

• Parallel to the bottom of the paper

• In a circular pattern

• Getting wider as they get closer to the bottom

• Remaining the same width

What is key to making trees look realistic in the drawing?

• Making them get smaller as they approach the vanishing point

• Drawing them all the same size

• Using only green color

• Drawing them above the horizon line

How should the windows and doors be drawn to ensure they look realistic?

• Without using any straight lines

• Referencing the vanishing point for their angles

• Larger as they get closer to the vanishing point

• All the same size, regardless of their position

What additional elements can be added to the drawing for more detail?

• Digital effects

• Only buildings and trees

• Photographs and stickers

• Sunset, river, and clouds
