    Study Notes

    Perspective Drawing

    • Prioritizes spatial representation to create an illusion of depth
    • Aims to give a 3D effect from a linear angle
    • Used in landscape drawings, blueprints, and any object
    • Can create optical illusions, such as foreshortening
    • Foreshortening: objects closer to the eye appear more prominent than objects farther away
    • To create a perspective drawing:
      • Mark a simple horizontal line for the viewer's eye level
      • Choose a vanishing point on the horizon (where parallel lines intersect)
      • Draw perspective lines from the vanishing point to the main subject

    Isometric Drawing

    • Derived from Greek "íso metro" meaning equal measure
    • Angle between x, y, and z axes is 120°
    • No perspective, with all three dimensions drawn at full scale
    • Used in engineering, architecture, and design to represent fixed objects and structures
    • Gives the illusion of depth and space, but from a fixed angle
