Drawing Foundation 2015 week 4

The fourth session of the Drawing Foundation class for Fall 2015 was held on Thursday, October 8. We covered questions on three-point perspective, discussed the challenges in drawing correct ellipses, and got to use a brilliant optical device that Dick designed and built in the last week: the NelOptic! Breaking down the visible world into two-dimensional shapes and lines is not easy, but his device provides clear feedback that can’t be argued with.
