TECHNICAL
DRAWING I
Unit of Competency:
Construct Pictorial
Drawing
Learning Outcome 3:
Construct
Perspective
Drawing
OBJECTIVE/S: At the
end of the month, you
should be able to:
a. Identify and
differentiate the two
types of perspective
drawing;
b. Discuss the
principles of
perspective drawing;
c. Construct parallel
and angular
perspective drawing
given three
orthographic views.
Perspective
Drawing is a pictorial
drawing which
contains receding lines
that converge at
vanishing points on
the horizon. This
drawing is also called
as “foreshortened
drawing”.
Principles of
Perspective
Drawing
1. All receding lines
converge on a
vanishing point.
2. The farther the
object, the lighter it
appears.
3. The farther the
object, lines, edges,
the smaller it appears.
4. The object can be
viewed in terms of
bird’s eye view, eye
level, and ant’s eye
view.
5. The vanishing point
can be located
anywhere as long as
the object will not be
distorted. For two-
point perspective, the
two vanishing points
must be aligned to
each other.
Types of
Perspective
Drawing
1. One-point or
Parallel Perspective
– is a receding line
that converges on a
single vanishing point.
2. Two-point or
Angular Perspective
– is a receding line
that converges on two
vanishing points.
3. Three-point
Perspective – is a
receding line that
converges on three
vanishing points
TECHNICAL TERMS:
o Picture Plane
(PP). This is an
imaginary vertical
plane where the
picture is registered.
o Ground Line (GL).
This is where the
actual figure is laid.
o Station Point
(SP). This is the fixed
position where the
object is actually
viewed.
o Visual Rays. These
are imaginary lines
projecting from the
observer to the figure
passing through the
picture plane. They
are sometimes called
receding lines.
o Horizon (H). This is
the point where the
figure appears
horizontally at eye
level.
o Vanishing Point
(VP). This is the point
where all receding
lines meet in a
perspective figure.
PROCEDURE in
Constructing One-Point
Perspective
1. Draw top and front
view, picture plane,
horizon line and
ground line
2. Locate station point
and project lines of
vision from the
corners of the top view
to station point
3. Project vertically
from station point for
single vanishing point
4. Project corners to
the vanishing point.
5. Drop projectors at
picture plane to
determine depths and
completeness .
