SJ02(b) - 3 object 1 perspective

Perspective: The Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt

This perspective shows how strokes can aid in producing 3Dimensional view of the sketch. The density of the strokes applied, for example, scribbling neatly on the surface of the pyramid produces a darker tone which illustrates shadow forming on the surface of that region whereas if vice versa, sunlight forms on the surface of that region.

For this perspective, I applied strokes such as scribble, short dash, pointillism and cross-hatching. In this perspective, I realized that scribbles can best represent the harsh surface of the pyramid of Giza, besides also knowing that pointillism is also an alternative stroke. Other than that, short dash can illustrate smooth surfaces like the walls of bricks on the base of the statue and pointillism can portrays the granular structure of a surface like the desert where the Great Pyramid of Giza stands. Lastly, cross hatching can effectively produce different tones of light and shadow which give the object a 3Dimensional approach.

Below are objects applied with these strokes which produce different effects on the objects.
