Drawing- Perspective and ellipses

Activity:

1. Design an interesting composition of arranged open boxes and other geometric forms, which are drawn using correct perspective techniques.
2. Boxes must be arranged in a logical arrangement –no floating boxes.
3. Boxes must be placed in a variety of views / perspectives.
