Perspective in Painting
Painters can use a variety of perspective techniques to create their own unique vision. It can be used to help create or accentuate 3 dimensional objects or spaces, atmospheric qualities, mood and mystery. Perspective can add a sense of drama and uniqueness to any artwork. In this class, we will discuss and practice the various approaches to perspective and apply it to our paintings to get the “feeling” that we are trying to convey.
