This resource reframes the traditional view that drawing “perspective” is a technical exercise involving horizon or vanishing points. This simple drawing activity aims to highlight that perspective is different for all of us and that seeing and drawing can ground us in our space.

“Even if we are both standing in the same place, we’re not quite seeing the same thing.” – David Hockney

What We Like About This Resource…

“This activity highlights how visual communication can be used to convey emotion. When artwork is relatable in a human and emotive way it can be really powerful. Learning how to translate feeling into mark-making is a really important skill and can help children break down the essence of a range of their own emotions, and communicate it to others. Explore colour and a range of materials to enrich this experience.” – Tobi, AccessArt.
