Perspective, Process, Media & Subject Matter

Perspective

aerial perspective refers to the technique of creating an illusion of depth by depicting distant objects as paler, less detailed, and (usually) bluer than near objects.

Perspective

One Point - One vanishing point is typically used for roads, railroad tracks, or buildings viewed so that the front is directly facing the viewer.

Perspective

Two-point perspective - used to draw the same objects as one-point perspective, rotated: looking at the corner of a house, or looking at two forked roads shrink into the distance

Perspective

Three-point perspective - usually used for buildings seen from above (or below). In addition to the two vanishing points from before, one for each wall, there is now one for how those walls recede into the ground. This third vanishing point will be below the ground.
