1 Point Perspective Drawing

The best way to get students to understand how to draw things that are real is to have them do exercises thatĀ help them understand how we see things in everyday life. Any item that you can see 2 sides of, you see in perspective. This assignment helps students to understand that. The first thing to do is to simply put a dot at the center of the page. That is our vanishing point, and all lines must go to that point on the horizon. From there, you must create the front side of a shape, in this case a rectangular “building”. From there, simply find all open corners of that shape that can go to the vanishing point and draw them going toward that point (stopping where you want your building to end). After that, simply add doors, windows, and signs, and you have a street!
