added comment inAssignment - Perspective for Drawing Anything
Asked for help
Here is my collection:
1-3 Kilian Eng. I like how he wields perspective to give a sense of scale. He creates fantastical landscapes and uses human stand-ins to provide a scope of how big of a space the art encapsulates. I like his full utilisation of the foreground, middle ground and the background to create a cohesive scene that gives depth to his illustrations. There is a gradient of detail from the closest object being more ornate, to the farthest objects being less so but still having gravitas.
4 Moebius - Like many others, I admire his work. I like his use of space. Often he depicts large open landscapes. This particular illustration depicts a busy hub with lots of characters occupying a space. I like the details of the wooden bracing on the ceilings, which provides enough spacing for the several staircases. The scaling is perfect for this fantasy setting to feel real.
5-6 Kim Jung Gi - His method of creating chaos from his imagination follows the rules of perspective masterfully. I especially admire his meta sketches where he makes a first person point of view illustration of him sketching on his sketchbook. He has a deep understanding of people and structures and how they exist in the space they occupy. So well that he can freehand draw things from imagination in any orientation.
Big picture goals:
1. Draw figures in a room that don’t look like they are levitating in space.
2. Be able to understand structure so I can rotate the object in my imagination, and then on to paper.
3. Understand foreshortening. Like all of it… I don’t get it at all.
