Perspective:- The technique artists use to project an illusion of the three-dimensional world onto a two-dimensionalsurface. - Perspective helps to create a sense of depth — of receding space.
Fundamental techniques used to achieve perspective are:1. Controlling variation between sizes of depicted subjects. 2. Overlapping objects and placing objects that are on the depicted ground as lower when nearer and higher when deeper.
What is the difference between 2-Dimensional and 3-Dimensional?
3-Dimensional objects have DEPTH.- Artists use perspective drawing to create depth on a flat surface using a horizon line and vanishing point.
Horizon Line- A level line where water or land seems to end and the sky begins. Vanishing points are located on the horizon line.
Vanishing Point- In linear perspective, the place on the horizon where parallellines seem to meet.

What is Value? An element of art that refers to the lightness or darkness of a color. Value is an especially important element in works of art when color is absent
What is a Highlight, Mid tone and Shadow?Highlight - The area on any surface which reflects the most light. Midtone - Tonal value mid-way between highlight and shadow, 50% greyShadow - An area that is not or is only partially illuminated because an opaque object is between the area and the source of light. Or, the image cast by an object blocking rays of illumination.
Collage • A picture or design created by adhering flat elements as newspaper, wallpaper, printed text and illustrations, photographs, cloth, string, etc., to a flat surface, when the result becomes three-dimensional. • “Collage" was originally a French word, meaning "to paste."
