Perspective Homework

Definitions:

Linear perspective- the organization of shapes in a space.
The horizon line- an eye level line that runs across the image. It is where the sky meets the ground.
Vanishing point- located on the horizon line where all parallel lines run and come together eventually.
Orthogonal lines- help the viewer see where to connect the points around the edge of the image into the vanishing point.
Transversal lines- always at a right angle to the orthogonal lines. They help establish a fixed height or width between orthogonal lines. They are always parallel to one another.
One point perspective- uses only one vanishing point. 
Two point perspective- uses two sets of orthogonal lines and two vanishing points in an image.
