Introductory Message

This Self-Learning Module (SLM) is prepared so that you, dear learners, can
continue your studies and learn while at home. Activities, questions, directions,
exercises, and discussions are carefully stated for you to understand each lesson.

Each SLM is composed of different parts. Each part shall guide you step-by-step
as you discover and understand the lesson prepared for you.

Pre-tests are provided to measure your prior knowledge on lessons in each SLM.
This will tell you if you need to proceed on completing this module or if you need to
ask your facilitator or your teacher’s assistance for better understanding of the
lesson. At the end of each module, you need to answer the post-test to self-check
your learning. Answer keys are provided for each activity and test. We trust that
you will be honest in using these.

In addition to the material in the main text, Notes to the Teachers are also provided
to our facilitators and parents for strategies and reminders on how they can best
help you on your home-based learning.

Please use this module with care. Do not put unnecessary marks on any part of
this SLM. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercise and tests. Read
the instructions carefully before performing each task.

If you have any questions in using this SLM or any difficulty in answering the tasks
in this module, do not hesitate to consult your teacher or facilitator.

Thank you.

picture plane draw the ________ and ________ in the ground line.
2. Locate _________ on the ground line and project __________ from the corner of the

5. From the _________ project vertical line downward.
6. Then trace the overall shape of the object.
7. Check the proportion of the object, reduce sizes if necessary.
8. Trace _________ or lines. _________ projection line to finish the drawing.

What’s In

Perspective is the key to almost any drawing or sketch as well as many paintings and
other art works. It is one of the fundamental that you need to understand to create realistic
and believable scenes.

1
 Before proceeding to next lesson, let us review and assess your knowledge on the
previous module. Please identify the following statements whether it is parallel or angular
perspective drawing. Put a checkmark (√) on all statements pertaining to parallel perspective
and a cross mark (X), if otherwise.

STATEMENT
1. Its receding lines converge on a single vanishing point.
2. Its receding lines will converge on a two vanishing points.
3. The vertical lines that run across the field of view remain parallel, as their
vanishing points are at "infinity."
4. The viewer is positioned so that the objects in the drawing or painting are
viewed from one corner.
5. It is often used for interior views or trompe l'oeil (fool the eye) effects.

If you got a perfect score, you are undeniably correct about the different types of
perspective drawing.

As an explanation for those who had a hard time identifying the questions; numbers
1, 3 and 5 are the definition of parallel perspective. On the contrary, numbers 2, and 4 are
the definition of angular perspective.

What’s New

On the previous module, you have applied parallel perspective in lettering your name.
Today, you will choose from the given isometric below and draw it in a perspective form. Use
any convenient measurements. Show me what you did! Submit your output along with your
answer sheet. Do not forget!!

 What is It?

1. Picture plane (pp).

-This is an imaginary vertical plane where the picture is registered.
2. Ground line (gl).
- This is where the actual figure is laid
3. Station point (sp).
- This is the fixed position where the object is viewed.
4. Visual rays.
- This is imaginary lines projecting from the observer to the figure passing
through the picture plane. They are sometimes called receding lines.
5. Horizon (h).
- This is the point where the figure appears horizontally at eye level.
- A thin line where the Earth and the sky appear to meet each other is the
horizon line, and it is always at the eye level.
6. Vanishing point (vp).
- This is the point where all receding lines meet.
- is a point where all the parallel lines seem to meet and gradually
disappear.

Perspective Drawing

Perspective is the key to almost any drawing or sketch as well as many paintings. It
is one of the fundamental that you need to understand to create realistic and believable
scenes.

Perspective is used to represent the ways objects appear smaller as they move farther
into the distance. It adds depth and dimension to flat images.

In art, there are three types of perspective: one-point, two-point, and three-point.

The word “perspective” comes from Latin and it means “to see through” so we can
assume that “perspective drawing” can be interpreted as creating the illusion of depth by
“seeing through geometric forms”.

3
Two common types of perspective drawing

1. Parallel or one-point perspective.

- Its receding lines converge on a single vanishing point.
- Single- or one-point perspective is the simplest method of making objects look
three-dimensional. It is often used for interior views or trompe l'oeil (fool the eye)
effects. Objects must be placed so that the front sides are parallel to the picture
plane, with the side edges receding toward a single point.
- In one-point perspective, the vertical lines that run across the field of view remain
parallel, as their vanishing points are at "infinity." The horizontal lines, however,
which are perpendicular to the viewer, vanish toward a single point at the center of
the image.

2. Angular or Two-point perspective drawing

- Its receding lines will converge on a two vanishing points.

- In two-point perspective, the viewer is positioned so that the objects in the drawing
or painting are viewed from one corner. This creates two sets of horizontals which
diminish toward vanishing points at the outer edges of the picture plane, leaving
only verticals perpendicular.

- It is slightly more complex, as both the front and back edges and the side edges of
an object must diminish toward vanishing points. Two-point perspective is often
used when drawing buildings in landscapes.

Principles of Perspective Drawing:

1. All receding lines converge on a vanishing point.

2. The farther the color, the lighter it appears.
3. The farther the object, lines, edges, and the smaller it appears.
4. The object can view in terms of bird’s eye view, eye level, and ant’s view.
5. The vanishing point can be located anywhere if the object will not distort. For the two-
point perspective, the two vanishing points must be aligned to each other.

Steps in Constructing Parallel or Two-Point Perspective Drawing.

1. Draw the horizontal lines representing picture plane, ground line and horizon. In the
picture plane draw top plan using 30ox60o triangle and front view in the ground line.

4
2. Locate the station point. The size of perspective drawing depends on the distance of
station point from the top plan.

3. From the station point, draw two lines, one at 30o and the other at 600, then mark their
meeting points with the picture plane and from that mark draw vertical line up to horizon
plane, their meeting point with the horizon will serve as left and right vanishing points.

5
4. Project corners of the top plan to form visual rays which will converge at the station
point, Then, mark the meeting point. Project vertical line which will become the
measuring lines.

6
5. From corners of the height of the object extend projectors to the left and right of the
vanishing point to form its construction lines.

6. Since the construction line for the perspective is already complete, darken now the
object lines.
