Perspective exercise 2009

Sometimes I noticed how difficult it can be with the rules of perspective. I arranged a theme evening about perspective at Aquarelmere were I told about these rules. As an exercise I came up with this still-life. For this exercise it was important that the items were standing on a small cloth and that the various pots had different heights and shape.

The cloth has four sides and the sides further away needs to be shorter than the sides nearer the viewer. The lower pots should have rounder openings while the pots with the opening near the horizon should have thinner openings. Little rules like these improve the quality of drawings a lot.


I moved from Sweden to The Netherlands in 1995.

Here on this site, you find my creations because that is what I do. I create.
