Hi Penelope— nice work! Your images here make it look as if the book is stuck to a ceiling like we are looking up at the cover! It might just be the way the photos appear on the blog – but it is kind of interesting! Excellent job also making the images on the cover of the book abide by the perspective in which you are viewing it. All elements contribute to the illusion of space/depth!
If you still have any questions about perspective since you completed this blog post / our in-class work, let me know. When in doubt always trust what you are seeing first! Then you can use the tools/ rule of perspective to guide the making of your drawing. Learn “the rules” of vision to break them — as the artist you have the power to make the drawing you want to see!
And thanks for the reading recommendation! Keith Haring is great! I will have to check out his journals too!
