Drawing Perspective introduces children ages 9-12 to the fundamental principles of perspective drawing. This multi-week class teaches one-point, two-point, and atmospheric perspective through hands-on drawing projects. Students learn to create the illusion of depth and three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface. Projects include cityscapes, interiors, and landscapes inspired by artworks in the museum's collection. Each session includes gallery visits to study how artists use perspective. The class builds spatial reasoning, observational skills, and technical drawing abilities.
