Cone, Cube, and Cast Shadows

This assignment called for us to draw a cone and a rectangular prism in a scene with a defined light source.  Thanks to Matt for coming up with the idea for this drawing!

One-Point Perspective from a Photograph

This assignment was the same as the last one, except we had to find an example of one-point perspective to interpret.  I'd gotten much more comfortable with the Art Stix by the time I finished this -- the color was so rich many people thought I'd used pastels.

Two-Point Perspective from a Photograph

For this drawing, we were to find a photograph depicting two-point perspective and interpret it.  This one was very popular with the class.

Two-Point Perspective Boxes

Two-point boxes this time.  Again, practicing drawing above, below, and straddling the horizon.  I had just purchased some fancy Prismacolor art stix and was attempting to get the hang of them.

One-Point Perspective Buildings

This is a sketchy drawing of a few buildings in one-point perspective, one below the horizon, one straddling it, and one above it.

One-Point Perspective Boxes

My first foray into perspective drawing, we were to draw a series of boxes at different heights above, below, and straddling the horizon.

Perspectives

The next 8 pictures will be of my assignments for Perspective Drawing class this quarter.  I had fun in this class, and it pushed me to excel in my drawing even more than before.  I hope you enjoy my work...
