Treehouse of Horror V
Bart is overlapped in front of Principle Skinner telling us that Bart is closer to the viewer. Bart is also drawn larger than he typically would be compared to Skinner, which makes him appear closer despite being smaller than Skinner.
Diminution - 5
Convergence - 3 the horizontal lines appear ton converge but I can't tell if they line up to a vanishing point
Foreshortening - 4
Overlap - 5
Atmospheric - 1 Their doesn't seem like there is any to me

Daredevil
Matt is covered in the dark shadows of the room and the ropes in the background are darker than the ones in the foreground. The rope and top of the canvas diminish and converge as they move away from us. There is also more shadow on Matt's head and shoulders than his torso the front and edge of the canvas is overlapping with the fare post and bottom rope; both of thees suggest we are looking up at Matt.
Diminution - 5
Convergence - 5
Foreshortening - 2 Matt's pose is square so the foreshortening doesn't feel to apparent, but their still is some due to us looking up at him
Overlap - 5
Atmospheric - 3 it is there, but it doesn't feel consistent
Jupiter, Neptune, and Pluto Caravaggio
The limbs of the figures are foreshortened. The Dog overlaps with the legs of the man and sphere in the canter overlaps with the hand of the top figure.

The staircase and Willie's tongue diminish and converge towards Grounds Keeper Willie and the chalk board diminishes and converges to the sky.

Based on the character from the Kids Nextdoor. If I can fit more of these in I will!

Favorite Image #4
I was a teenager when Calvin and Hobbes came out, which was just the right age to get completely gobsmacked by the characters and the art. It's one of my first art loves.
Form Analysis:
Convergence 3/5
I don't know if Bill Watterson plotted any vanishing points in this image, but I've analyzed enough of his art to know that he has with other images. He knows perspective rules well. As such we can see the stream narrow as it moves away from us. Also notice how, with the horizon line high, he placed Calvin lower in the image to reflect correct position the characters occupy on the ground plane while walking side by side with the horizon line above them.
While not convergence, also note the use of wrapping lines on the trees, on Hobbes's stripes, and on Calvin's hat to help orient all the objects in the views mind.
Value Analysis:
Atmosphere 5/5
Watterson make good use of atmospheric perspective by controlling the values to create distance. This can be a little tricky because he is inking the characters and parts of the background, but in the instance, he is doing a lot of work with the watercolor washes.
Shape Analysis:
Overlapping 5/5
The overlapping of the landscape here borders on the extreme, however, like with the Frazetta piece analyzed earlier, Watterson keeps much of the overlapping shapes in a narrow range of values to keep it organized. He does vary the color quite a bit, but because the values are close, nothing gets confusing.
Diminution 3/5
Here Watterson uses a light touch. He is careful to make the trees in the far background thinner than the ones closer to us in the mid ground. It works beautifully showing that it doesn't take much to establish scale.

Some rhythms practice, Done with the proko timer. Sorry that I don't have the references, the timer doesn't have an option to grab them after youre done drawing. Please tell me anything you see where I may have gone wrong or could improve on! thanks!
