Perspective Assignment- Hallway Drawing
Requirements:
Draw an 8"x11" one-point (or 2 for those of you that need a challenge) linear perspective sketch of a location within the school with as much accuracy as possible. You must use the guidelines given with: A horizon line, vanishing point, and converging lines. Upon approval and proof of understanding, you then may move to your final:
Draw a final one-point perspective drawing (11x17) of a location within the school with as much detail and accuracy as possible. You must use the guidelines given with: A horizon line, vanishing point, and converging lines.
Must be shaded with accurate values (lights and darks)
Have good "craft", meaning take good care of your drawing by avoiding folds, tears, stains, smudges, etc.
Lets get started....
Day 1 (2/10): Sketch the Hallways – Warm-up/Thumbnail Sketch...
Step 1: Get your paper, pencil, eraser, drawing surface, and RULER
Step 2: Find yourself a location on the second floor of the school with a ONE-POINT PERSPECTIVE. If you are unsure – ask!
Step 3: Get comfortable and place your HORIZON LINE somewhere near the middle of your page, and find your vanishing point on that horizon line. Commit to This!! Your Horizon Line and Vanishing Point should remain stationary for your whole drawing... It is your “foundation”.
Step 4: Begin drawing your hallway! You may start with the floor or ceiling or even the lockers...
You will need:
-Paper
-Pencil (2H – HB to start → DRAW LIGHTLY!!!!!!)
-Eraser
-Ruler (remember this tool will become your friend)
-Drawing Board
You will:
-Go forth with your items to find a lovely spot in school to draw! Make sure it is a location with (at minimum) one-point perspective!
-Be respectful of my trust by being productive in the halls
-Be respectful of others by being quiet in the halls
Tips:
- DO NOT DRAW DARK! You will probably do some erasing, so keep your marks light! Don't torture your paper!
- Do NOT get hung-up on the details until you are sure you have your “Skeleton” in place...
- Cross-check sizes!! Is the garbage bin REALLY taller than the lockers?
- LOOK at what you are drawing! Do not draw from your head! Count how many ceiling tiles wide the hall-way is...etc

- Respect my trust by being productive during class
- Use class time for drawing!
Rubric Requirements:

- Draw a final one-point perspective drawing of a location within the school with as much realism as possible. You must use the guidelines given with: A horizon line, vanishing point, and converging lines. Must be shaded with accurate values (lights and darks)
