When we add perspective to any scenario it gives it a better depth and also a better explanation of the placing and angle of the object. But when this same principle is applied to human figures, it becomes very important to understand that figures placement in the scenario and how it interacts with the surroundings.
Perspective defines the angle from which we are viewing the human figure. It can either be from the front, top or bottom. It completely depends on the viewer. Here, it becomes vital to get the proportions right. The part in the front has to larger as compared to the parts on the back. So tracing the perspective lines and then making the figures helps in getting a clearer and sharper picture.
These are some of the sketches made by me. I used all three perspectives in the process of making them.
Also a peer discussion in class also helped us in understanding our strengths in drawing and also made us realise how we could improve in different topics.
This class also included the first project which had the involvement of colours in it. We were supposed to make boxes of the dimension 5 cm X 5 cm and colour all of them in different colours. At the end we had to transform it into a cube. This was going to be our shade card to make a landscape or a portrait.
