Here is a definition of one point perspective I found at www.andrewkongknight.com/hhsart/linearperspective.html, "In one point perspective the flat side of the object you draw is facing you. You establish the flat side of the object first, then converge all of the receding lines to one vanishing point which is directly across from your station point." Before I started doing my drawing, Cathy had me go to a website to read a lesson that would give me a better understanding of the one point perspective.

Reading this lesson gave me a much better understanding how to draw something while looking at it. Here is a picture of what I drew during my art assessment.
The object in the middle is supposed to be a Kleenex box. I had a lot of trouble drawing this, but now after doing this exercise I better understand how I would draw this. Next week, I may be doing more work using the one point perspective or possibly moving on to using the two point perspective.
I feel good about what I've done so far. I am enjoying the learning process and so far I have found it very interesting. I am not that far into it, so we'll see how the rest of it goes.
