Summative Composition Challenges
Option #1
|
Surreal Environment
What would an environment look like on another civilized planet? In another dimension? By using the Art Prompts Website found here: http://artprompts.org/environment-prompts/ or by clicking on the button above, Create a drawing composition in 2 or 3 point perspective that represents your interpretation of the "Environment" prompt it gives you. |
|
Option #2
|
Crazy Foreshortening
How do artists create a sense of intense mood within a scene? Achieve deep depth of field by creating a drawing using the concepts of foreshortening learned from the above videos and your instructor. Take a picture of the person, place, or thing you would like foreshortened to use as a reference for your drawing. You must use the concepts of 3 point perspective in this drawing to get the desired effect. |
|
Option #3
|
Mouse to Zenith!
How can changing the angle of a scene enhance the viewer's reaction to it? You are a mouse! Draw a scene from "worms eye view" that represents your understanding of 3 point perspective. Set up a still life of objects that you can find in the room and draw them in accurate 3 point perspective to Zenith. Essentially, pretend you are drawing from the perspective of a mouse looking up at objects! |
|
Option #4
|
Op Art
Create an optical illusion. Study the masters of Op Art and design your own funky twisted assortment of angular lines while using the concepts of accurate 2 or 3 point perspective. |
|
