Using a Self portrait create a line drawing that will give a valueless self portrait that displays the break pu of value without showing the ANY lights and darks. Stuident are using reference of themselves taken by themselves with phones on their personal handheld technology.
Students are directed to take the pic using a single light source to show a full range of VALUE. After they have taken the pic they proceed to Email it to themselves and manipulate it on the computer and print it to spec. and begin a line drawing to later fill with value.
I will try to keep up you up to date with curriculum by showing pictures of work and examples through the use of this blog

2 point Quiz- Guaranteed 100%
2pt perspective quiz
1. How many points are used in 2pt perspective?
- 1
-2
-3
-4
3. How do you ensure all buildings sit on the same level?
- vertical lines
- shared vanishing lines
- perpendicular line
4. What tool ensures vertical lines
- ruler
- pencil
- triangle
- T- square
6. 2pt perspective is the illusion of
- height
- width
- depth
- volume
7. For the current project, for a minimum grade how many buildings do you have to show?
8. In 2pt perspective the building closest to the viewer is the-
- largest
- smallest

- widest
9. More details equal a higher grade- true or false

2 point preliminary detail
Currently students were asked to create a city using 2 point perspective.
Now they will be working on preliminary detail, windows doors and sidewalks. The windows will be done using a "SHARED" line. as will the sidewalks from building to building.
So far we have talked about Line quality and Economy of line, students usually have a fair amount of erasing to do unless the follow the economy of line direction. using the line that lines up with the appropriate vanishing point, then being able to draw a line to the length needed.

do now for 2 point perspective
This is basically what they see when they walk in. The assignment is to complete a city in two point perspective.
Here is the LINK to the plan, Two point perspective is the illusion that objects get smaller as they get farther away from you. Read an you will see exactly what I grade the kids on and how the project is broken into 2 parts.
