One Point Perspective: Artist Statement

​In this drawing, I tried to make it as comfy and cozy as possible. I included couches, a bookshelf, a poster, bookshelf, fairy lights and a bunch of knick-knacks to capture that. I wanted you to look at the room and think that a teen could live there, that is why I drew it slightly messy. I wanted it also to be envisioned as a living room or a chill spot of some kind. 

Based on this project, I learned that in one point perspective a lot of things go back to the horizon line when looked at on the side. I also learned that if the piece drew is faced forward that it is below the horizon line. It seemed that in the drawings it was best to use a ruler as a guide. 

I am most proud of my shelves on my bookshelves and my fairy lights. However, to improve I would have added more details to my drawing so it would look comfier and more packed rather than spaced. 

My advice to those doing this project next year is to have a vision of the room they want to draw instead of free-willing it because by then you seem to be stuck and a lot of the drawing reflect that since it looks out of place.
