The Illusion of Depth Lesson Plan
 * Lesson Plan **


 * Key Concept: ** using the elements of perspective

a) learn about the Renaissance b) Use the elements of perspective in a practical way to produce the illusion of depth, space and distance.
 * Objective: ** students will


 * Procedure: **

a) intro - history, key players, Review of 1 and 2 point perspective

b) slides of key players and examples of perspective located in **Gallery**

c) create 5 thumbnails for final piece that include

1) implies and mechanical perspective,

2) an example of value,

3) a letter

4) a block, cube solid,

5) receding space,

6) advancing space,

7) grounds,

8) foreshortening

d) learn proper vocab.

e) learn these

A few rules to achieve the illusion.

*Perspective, 1, 2 or multi point and or Aerial perspective. Foreshortening is also a form of perspective. It is based on an extreme point of view.A mechanical or freehand method for drawing 3 dimensions.

* Overlapping

* Value changes create the illusion of form from shapes

*As objects recede they lighten in color a (atmospheric or ariel perspective based upon Leonardo's studies

*As objects recede detail is harder and harder to see.

* as objects recede they get smaller.

* As objects advance color gets more intense.

* As objects advance details become clearer.

* As objects advance they get larger.

* Position upon the picture plane;

a) the higher things are placed, the farther away the appear to be.

b) the further down, the closer they see

* The inclusion of Back ground, middle ground and fore ground.

Exam 1 What is the Illusion of Depth? 2 Why do some artists use the Illusion of Depth like they do? 3 Compare deep space to shallow space? 4 What is the relationship between the terms space and depth? 5 What is perspective? 6 Who is Giotto? And what was the real importance of his work? 7 What year is it agreed that perspective was discovered? 8 What do you need to draw 1, 2 or multi point perspective? 9 Describe how value is part of the illusion of depth. 10 How does a painting that exhibits deep space reveal emotions? Art 2 Explain how Bottocelli, Ucello, Raphello and Michelangelo used the illusion of depth. 11 2 point shows ---& and a --or. 12 1 point shows ---& and a or. 13 A still life is an example of what kind of space? 14 Cubism resisted to remain a - plane. 15 Concerning the Illusion of Depth math and art share what? 16 Name the grounds that refer to depth. 17 Albrect Durer’s invention was called a what? 18 Illusion is skilled based, yes or no? 19 Mechanical refers to working with what instruments? 20 The opposite of mechanical would be? 21 Anamorphic perspective is what type of perspective? 22 Point of view is related the artist’s -- -. 23 How did the Egyptian’s show depth? 24 How did the Chinese show depth? 25 List 5 examples of the Illusion of Depth that were used in your drawing. 1 2 3 4 5
