3.- Linear perspective; This is the representation of the picture plane as directly viewed by the artist using foreshortening to depict depth. The nearer objects are bigger and clearer while the distant objects reduce in size and tend to fade away.
Parallel perspective; pictorial representation that deals mostly with horizontal lines and arrangement of objects in a two-dimensional way. All the objects facing the artist appear flat except the distance in the picture plane
Angular perspective; This type of perspective is used in representing objects that are three dimensional in appearance. The three sides of the object can be seen in in a such a way that it reflects the upright angle on the horizontal line
Aerial perspective; The type of perspective that deals with atmospheric condition and its effect on a picture plane. Hence, most of the colours in the distance are always greyish while the nearer colours are sharp and clear [10 marks]
