  1. Perspective refers to the way objects appear based on their relative position and distance in a two-dimensional space, creating depth and dimension in art.
  2. Linear perspective is a technique that uses converging lines to create the illusion of depth and distance in a two-dimensional artwork, typically leading towards a vanishing point.
  3. Aerial perspective involves creating a sense of depth by depicting objects in the distance with less detail, lighter tones, and cooler colors, mimicking the atmospheric effects on perception.
  4. Foreshortening is a technique used to depict an object or body part in a way that shows it receding into the distance, often involving distortion to maintain a realistic sense of perspective.
