    I can use One-Point Perspective in my art

    What is one-point perspective? A drawing method that shows how things appear to get smaller as they get further away, meeting up towards a single vanishing point on the horizon line. 

    Let's get started!

    Supplies:

    white paper

    pencil

    ruler (optional)

    fine-tipped sharpie

    coloring supplies (crayons, colored pencils, markers or paint)

    Step One: Using a pencil draw a horizon line with a dot in the middle. The dot is your one-point perspective.

    Step Two:

    Starting at the dot, draw a line to each corner of your paper.

    Step Three:

    Draw trees and buildings on each side.

    Step Four: Trace everything with your sharpie. Erase any unwanted pencil lines and add details. Remember Craftsmanship!

    Step Five: Make sure any pencil lines that you don't want are erased. Now you can color your picture using your choice of supply. I used colored pencils. What will you use?
