Do Now:

Complete your 1 point perspective drawing handout. Must be submitted today. You have 10 minutes to complete

+

Look at the image above, How many vanishing points does it have?

+

How are two point perspective drawings created?

+Instructional Objectives:

•  Define two point perspective.

•  Define the terms horizon line, vanishing point and orthogonal line.

•  Create a 2 point perspective drawing.

+ Define: Perspective •  Perspective: a technique of depicting

volumes and spatial relationships on a flat surface.

+ Perspective •  Two-Point Perspective: lines look like they are meeting at

two points on the horizon line.

+ Steps in creating a 2 point perspective drawing

Horizon Line: The line in a perspective drawing where the sky meets the ground.

It also represents the viewer’s eye level.

+ Steps in creating a 2 point perspective drawing

Vanishing Point: The point on the horizon line at which lines or edges that are parallel appear to converge.

+ Steps in creating a 2 point perspective drawing

Orthogonal Line: It is the line you draw from the corner of an object to the vanishing point.

It establishes the illusion of a perpendicular line going into the distance.

+Summary Questions:

•  What is the definition of two point perspective.

•  Define the terms horizon line, vanishing point and orthogonal line.

•  List the steps needed to create a 2 point perspective drawing.

+ IMMEDIATE APPLICATION •  Create a 2 point perspective cityscape using the handout.

•  Use the diagrams on the handout to help complete the drawing.

•  Be sure to create and label your horizon line and vanishing point.

•  Your FINAL drawing should include as many details (in perspective) as possible.

•  Include at least:

•  4 Buildings

•  Windows (in at least 2 buildings)

•  Doors
