Grade 7 students studied Linear Perspective drawing techniques to further their knowledge and understanding on how to create depth in their artwork, especially with geometric forms found in a cityscape. We examined the artworks of American painters Edward Hopper, Childe Hassam and Georgia O'Keeffe (yes, she did paint some cityscapes) and compared and contrasted their different styles and themes in their paintings. Additionally, we studied important terms and concepts that are essential to drawing perspective.
