line perspective
Way to represent the three-dimensional world on a flat surface, using a vanishing point to which all parallel horizontal lines run.
Here you see central perspective, a form of line perspective in which the artist stands in the middle of the space (also known as one-point perspective).
Slide 3 - Slide
In one-point perspective..
is the vanishing point at the artist's eye level.
vertical lines remain vertical and horizontal lines remain horizontal.
only the lines that go into depth (slanted lines) end up in the vanishing point.
Slide 4 - Slide
