Perspective

with Karlyn Holman

One Point Perspective

Lesson Description

Karlyn will draw the white houses of Frigiliani, Spain and explain one-point perspective. The shadows of the white houses were painted with a gray tone made by using cobalt blue and Winsor orange. The grays were varied by the amount of water used to dilute this mixture.

Materials List
  • Arches
  • #6 Brush
  • Script Brush
  • HB Pencil
  • Oriental brush

Colors Used

  • Cobalt Blue
  • Winsor Orange
  • Scarlet Lake
  • Quinacrodone Rose
  • Quinacrodone Gold
  • Antwerp Blue
  • Alizarin Crimson
  • Phthalo Green
  • Winsor Orange

Two Point Perspective

Lesson Description

Karlyn draws this scene from the Placa in Athens, Greece to demonstrate two-point perspective. This is when parallel lines along the width and depth of an object meet at two points on the horizon. Establishing the horizon line or eye level is the first thing that you must determine. After you have figured out the horizon line, grab your HB pencil and begin your drawing. To create the shadows, mix together cobalt blue and Windsor orange to make a gray. Use more orange in the sunny areas and more blue in the shadow areas. Use more water for a lighter gray and less water for a darker value.
The foliage has more vibrancy if you apply the yellows and blues and allow them to mix on the paper. Place primary yellow first, then Quinacridone gold and finally the Antwerp blue. Mixing Quinacridone Burnt Orange and Antwerp blue will make that dark green needed for the final details. The sky area was wet first and then French Ultramarine blue was applied next to the buildings.

Color Temperature

Lesson Description

A subtle but very enriching understanding of controlling the warm and cool color temperatures found in our composition. The subject stairs at a 17th century convent in Frayssinet, France. This new lesson focuses on capturing the gray shadows, using a mixture of cobalt blue and Windsor orange. While this mixture is still wet, charge in pure warm and cool colors. This added enhancement is so exciting. Areas in the sun should have a warm temperature and colors in the shade should have a cool temperature.
