Foreshortening

Foreshortening is the method of rendering a specific object or figure in a picture in depth. The artist records, in varying degrees, the distortion that is seen by the eye when an object or figure is viewed at a distance or at an unusual angle.

Foreshortening practice exercises:
  • With a partner, while someone is standing on a chair or at a close up perspective to the model, take a picture of the model in a way that shows dynamic foreshortening.
  • Redraw the picture as forms showing linear perspective and foreshortening (like from the 2nd video under this section).

Art Prompts - Environments
Linear Perspective (Part II)

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. 

Picture

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.
Picture

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!
Picture

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.
Picture

Option #5

Someone's Watching
Draw the inside of a room in 2 or 3 point perspective from the perspective of what an image from a video camera might resemble.  Think of a hidden camera somewhere in the room.  What might be going on?  
Picture

Criteria
  • min. size = 16x20 in.
  • 2 or 3 point perspective used
  • finished with colored pencil, ink, or ink wash.  If you are going to explore this project with ink wash you must use watercolor paper.
  • Clear representation of theme and intent
