TWO POINT PERSPECTIVE
By Paula Sadler
What are we learning? Vocabulary
Horizon line Vanishing point Vertical, horizontal, and orthogonal lines Surrealism
How to start creating a drawing with two point perspective
Final project – Surreal Cityscape
Vocabulary Horizon line: where the sky meets
the ground, a horizontal line Vanishing point: the place where all
lines meet or “vanish,” it is located on the horizon line
Horizontal line: a line that goes left to right, it is parallel to the horizon line
More Vocabulary Vertical line: a line that goes up and
down, it is perpendicular to the horizon line
Orthogonal line: lines that create the sides of an object in one point perspective, these lines are drawn to the vanishing point
Surrealism: something that is real, but wouldn’t occur in reality
Let’s get started Draw a horizon line across your paper Put two vanishing points on the horizon line, one on both sides of your paper
Now draw a vertical line through the middle of your paper
Connect the top and bottom of the vertical line to both of the vanishing points. We are
creating the orthogonal lines.
Now end the form with two vertical lines on each side.
Erase the extra orthogonal lines at the top and the horizon line inside of the form.
DO YOU SEE YOUR FIRST BUILDING?
Let’s try another one!Start with a vertical line on the left side of the
building.
Connect the top and bottom to each vanishing point.
End the building with a vertical line.
Erase the extra orthogonal lines and horizon line inside of the building.
Let’s do another one!
Now for doors and windows!Start with a vertical line and connect it to the
vanishing point.
If your window or door is on the left side of your building, connect the vertical lines to the
left vanishing point. The same goes for the right side.
End the windows and doors with another vertical line.
Erase the extra orthogonal lines.
How about a sidewalk with a curb?
Surrealism Something that is real, but wouldn’t occur
in realityEXAMPLES: a rabbit hole in the sidewalk a building made of cheese a penguin living in a palm tree
Famous Surreal Artists Salvador Dali “The Persistence of
Memory”

Rafal Olbinski “Predictability of Distinctive
Manners”
Requirements One small, one medium, and one large
building At least one window and one door for each
building At least three surreal objects
One in the foreground (THE FRONT) One in the middle ground (THE MIDDLE) One in the background (THE BACK)
