One Point Perspective: What is Perspective? Perspective is a drawing technique used to create the illusion of space and distance on a flat surface. One Point Perspective: Began during the Renaissance Leonardo Da Vinci created 3-D space in paintings such as the Last Supper Only one Vanishing Point View of only one side of an object

Key Vocabulary One-Point Perspective: Only one Vanishing Point View of only one side of an object Two-Point Perspective: Two vanishing points, View of an object on an angle. Two sides are visible

Points of View When using perspective keep these 3 points of view in mind: When you are viewing an object from eye level you will see the front of the object When you are viewing an object that is below eye level, you will see the top of the object (birds eye view) When you are viewing an object that is above your eye level, you will see the bottom of the object. (worms eye view)

Ways Artists Create Space Size: Objects appear smaller as they get farther away. Position: Objects appear higher on the page as they get farther away. Overlap: Overlapping objects show which is farther. Detail: Objects have less detail as they get farther away. Saturation of color: Close objects are brightest and sharpest. Objects in the distance appear pale and washed out. Atmospheric perspective: Objects in the distance may appear bluish. Warm colors advance/cool colors recede: Warm colors may appear closer. Cool colors may appear farther away.
