One-Point-Perspective Drawings
This topic forms part of EGD paper 1, question 3. A One-Point-Perspective drawing will illustrate an object where the front view will be drawing to the same given scale, but the disappearing side (left or right) of the One-Point-Perspective drawing will appear in an illusion as if it the object became smaller or even vanish in depth in the direction it extends to. With One-Point-Perspective drawings, the vanishing point can disappear only to the right or to the left.
In grades 11 & 12, learners will practice the principles of drawing Two-Point-Perspective drawings. With Two-Point-Perspective drawings, the vanishing point will disappear to the right and to the left.
