INTRODUCTIONLinear perspective is a mathematical system for creating the illusion of space and distance on a flatsurface. The system originated in Florence, Italy in the early 1400s. The artist and architect Brunelleschidemonstrated its principles, but another architect and writer, Leon Battista Alberti was first to write downrules of linear perspective for artists to follow. Leonardo da Vinci probably learned Alberti's system whileserving as an a r t s t u d e n t to the artist Verrocchio in Florence. .

To use linear perspective an artist must first imagine the picture surface as an "open window" throughwhich to see the painted world. Straight lines are then drawn on the canvas to represent the horizon and"visual rays" connecting the viewer's eye to a point in the distance. .

The horizon line runs across the canvas at the eye level of the viewer. The horizon line is where the skyappears to meet the ground. . .

The vanishing point should be located near the center of the horizon line. The vanishing point is whereall parallel lines (orthogonals) that run towards the horizon line appear to come together like train tracksin the distance. .

Orthogonal lines are "visual rays" helping the viewer's eye to connect points around the edges of thecanvas to the vanishing point. An artist uses them to align the edges of walls and floor tiles.

When working with our final project, list the steps for successfully creating your work using theseterms in your list: atmospheric perspective, object scale, overlap, linear perspective, value shading.

STEPS:

1.2.3.4.

SCALE- Using one set of similar images below, cut them out and glue them down ontothe Designing Space worksheet as part of the process you have l isted above.

VALUE - adding value (shading) to a SHAPE to create FORM

w o r k s h e e t

In a group of two, students will create a composition that uses linear and atmospheric perspective, overlapping,contrast and scale change.Identify correctly elements and principles by LABELING THE IMAGE from the space list.

Steps:1. Student 1 will cut out the set of images.2. Student 2 will design the room / space, using elements from the space list as part of the process.3. Student 1 will glue cut out images onto drawing.4. Students 1 and 2 will label the work, using the letters from the list

GRADATION

Gradation of size and direction produce linear perspective. Gradation of of colour from warm to cool andtone from dark to light produce aerial perspective. Gradation can add interest and movement to a shape. A
