Perspective basics
Compare
Perspective is a technique used in art to create the illusion of depth and space on a flat surface. It involves the representation of objects in a way that reflects their size and position relative to the viewer’s eye. Key concepts include linear perspective, where parallel lines converge at a vanishing point, and atmospheric perspective, which involves changes in color and clarity to simulate distance. Mastering perspective allows artists to create realistic and dynamic compositions, enhancing the three-dimensionality of their work.
