Overlapping Overlapping Objects Overlapping objects is a helpful tool for creating an illusion of 3D. Depending on how it is applied can give a sense of deep or shallow space within a composition.
Overlapping, as a component of geometric perspective, is introduced as a means of creating depth.
The Statue of Liberty in the painting on the left overlapping the river and the horizon helps to create a greater sense of depth than the painting that is on the right. On the left we get the sensation of deep space. On the right the space is shallow.
Changing the size and placement of the objects in these two paintings helps give more depth to the painting. Changing the size of the Indians makes them appear far away in the painting on the left. On the right, the ballerinas are on a higher plane than the ones in the front pushes them farther away into the background.
Assignment 1. Cut the faces out. 2. Arrange one composition where they do not overlap. 3. Arrange another composition where they do overlap. 4. Then draw in a couple of smaller faces behind the larger ones to show depth.
