Let's Learn About Two-Point Perspective!

During this class, students will learn how to create their very own two-point perspective art to communicate the illusion of space and depth. Two-point perspective occurs when you can see two vanishing points from your point of view. Two-point perspective drawings are often used in architectural drawings and interior designs; they can be used for drawings of both interiors and exteriors. It is a way of drawing objects upon a flat piece of paper so that they look three-dimensional and realistic. We will discuss all the different elements of linear perspective like the horizon line, vanishing point, transversal lines, orthogonal lines and foreground/middle ground/background. Finally, we will outline our drawing with a marker and if there's time, they can color their artwork using their choice of markers, crayons, water color or colored pencils.

As the teacher, I will guide the students step-by-step through each process and draw alongside them. In the materials section below, you can find everything that you will need for this class.
