1. ______________________ A horizontal line across a picture plane where the
earth meets the sky
2. ___________________ Lines that will run on forever and never meet
3. ______________________ A system of using lines to create the illusion of depth
on a flat two-dimensional picture plane
4. ______________________ To move back
5. _____________________ A painting technique that shows distance using variations
in color, size and detail.
6. _____________________ A type of linear perspective in which all lines converge at
a single vanishing point
7. _____________________ A point in a perspective drawing where lines converge
8. _____________________ To represent a subject in an artwork as shorter than actual
length in order to make it look as though it is coming toward the viewer.
9. ____________________ A type of linear perspective in which lines converge at two
vanishing point; used to show two sides of an object at once
10. ___________________ An image with two sides that are almost identical; a
mirror image of each other
11. ___________________ Lines that go to the vanishing point
12. ___________________ To meet at one point
