Discipline/perspective drawing

I would first give an introduction for helping the student understand perspective drawing. A series of examples would be shown such as how my instructor set her blog up for my 760 course.

Here I found some tips written

In one point perspective, surfaces that face the viewer appear as their true shape, without any distortion. They are drawn using primarily horizontal and vertical lines, as illustrated by the diagram below:

Surfaces that travel away from the viewer, on the other hand, converge towards a single ‘vanishing point‘. This is a point that is located directly in front of the viewer’s eyes, on a ‘horizon line.

Key Points:

• Surfaces that face the viewer are drawn using their true shape
• Surfaces that travel away from the viewer converge towards a single vanishing point

example:

I also may use block letter assignment using perspective. I think maybe the assignment will go for 4 to 5 class periods. Or if not just 3 class periods and the students have to finish in their own time at home.
