Knowledge
The student is informed in the basic mechanics of linear perspective and their application to object drawing together with perspective and structural drawing, including three-point perspective, curvilinear perspective, and shadow projection. Students have knowledge of perspective required for drawing virtual objects from various points of view. Students are acquainted with the perspective principles, such as diminution, foreshortening, and convergence.
