one point perspective

Perspective is the way we view something. All of you will learn about using a 1 point perspective to create your name in block letters. Below is a video that will instruct you to get started. 


Goal- You all will be drawing your name in one point perspective and then coloring it in with colored pencil. I would like to see some type of color scheme or pattern on the front of your letters.

portrait background

Now that you have finished painting your portrait with both a warm and cool color tint it is now time to focus on the background. 

Goal-
In your background you must have a a line pattern. It maybe contain anything from zig-zags to circles as long it is a repeating pattern. Once you have drawn your pattern it is time to shade it. You will pick two completely different warm and cool colors to use in your background. You will be creating a variety of 'shades"( adding black) and painting in the ENTIRE background.
