On this page you will be able to see your current in-class project, sample work, and due dates. Please click the projects below to find out more information about the project. On the linked pages you will see the project overview, student samples and be able to download the assignment sheet and rubric incase you lost the one you got in class.
This project focuses on two point perspective. You will learn the rules of 2pt perspective and then apply them to your own assignment. 20 pts. - Boxes and Notes 20 pts. - House/buildings Drawing 20 pts. - Interior Room Drawing 40 pts - Final drawing (your choice) Practice #1 --- Basic Cube shapes in 2pt.In the second activity Practice #2 --- House or CityIn this second activity we are learning to create a house (or building or city) in 2 point. Take your time to figure out the appropriate place for the horizon line (eye level). Work to create the basic structure of boxes first then continue to build up more details to make it look like a house/building. Practice #3 --- Interior Room DrawingNow we go inside the house. Learn how the 2 point perspective rules are applied in an interior space. This is not the easiest tutorial to follow, but its what you get if you missed class... feel free to search youtube for another.

This project is inspired by the work of artist and designer Patrick Seymour. More of Patrick's work can be seen at his website https://www.behance.net/patrickseymour or by searching his name in google images. Our assignment is to express the form of animals through the creative application of lines and bands of color.
Below are a variety of student examples from the last semester. Please enjoy the work, but make yours original.
Project Intro
In case you missed class on the day I did the introduction to one point perspective please check out the prezi and copy the vocabulary terms. --> PREZI <---
1) Draw Boxes
Practice drawing boxes in one-point perspective. Gaining a good understanding how to draw boxes will make drawing more complex items easier in the future. Draw at least 6 boxes on your paper that all comment to ONE vanishing point. Check out this video if you need a refresher.
2) Bird's Eye View City
Now that you have mastered the basic box it's time to start making these boxes look like something in the real world. Your challenge is to draw a city from an aerial perspective The key is to start by drawing the roofs of the buildings. Then start connecting the roofs closets to the vanishing point first working your way towards the outside edges. Don't be like the guy in the video though... Use a ruler please!
3) Main Street View
Let's approach our city from another angle. This time put your feet firmly on the ground and attempt to draw a version of "main-street" using your imagination and what you have learn thus far.
4) Interior Perspective
Interiors can be tricky. Sometimes it is difficult to fit things into an enclosed space and keep furniture from floating or crashing into walls. Experiment with the size of the back wall that you draw and where to put the horizon line (eye level).
5) Final Project
For the final piece of this lesson select one of the previous practice activities to turn into a fully realized artwork. Spend ONE day to draw a rough draft and then approximately THREE days doing the final shaded drawing in perspective.
I encourage you to find a drawing to use as a reference (not to copy exactly). Do some google searching and see what turns up when you search the following terms. Consider printing up a image to work from for your final.
During this assignment we learned about color theory and how colors work in combinations. We also studied the work of Georgia O'Keeffe and discussed the way that she abstracted her subjects. Your final assignment will consist of four small colored pencil drawing based on cropped/abstracted images. This week our focus is on learning to shade. The two handouts below are the practice for gaining better control of shading techniques before we apply them to an actual project.
Please read over the information in the syllabus. I am posting a link to the digital version and a copy that can be printed. Please feel free to ask any questions you might have about the course.
In case you switched in late or missed a day or two of class here is what we've done so far. Introductory Survey - So I can get to know you. Vocabulary Discussion - Short group activity matching and discussing art vocab. Klimt Collage Pattern Project - Wednesday we started our first offical in-clss project. It will be due at the end of next week check the file boloew for an overview of the project..
