Customer Reviews

Good introduction to perspective

This is a great resource for grades K-3. It is an excellent introduction to perspective and distance. This book used famous works of art and asks the reader questions to assist them in learning about depth and spacial relations. There is a useful glossary at the end as well as a good suggested reading list and a couple of websites for further learning. This would be a good purchase for a child as an introduction to a fairly complicated concept in art.
