Perspective drawings

Anyone can draw a picture but how about drawing a picture that has depth and looks as if you can step right into it? Sixth and Seventh grade students learned the techniques that come with what are called Perspective Drawings, they had to include a horizon (the place where sky and land/water meet) and a vanishing point (the place where as the scenery looks as if it disappears because it gets smaller and smaller). Students had their choice of scenery, some chose cityscapes others chose beaches and parks, but all had the two main techniques – Horizon & Vanishing Point. Once they carefully measured and drew their pictures they colored them using color pencils and markers.
