Optical Illusions by Jessica

For the past few weeks, my class has been learning about how to draw optical illusions and how 3D perspective works. Most optical illusions must consist of straight lines and shading has to be on point. 3D perspective art must have straight lines co-responding to the direction they're coming from and once again, shading must be on point.

I have really enjoyed drawing out different types of optical illusions. From drawing 3D stars that trick your mind to a twisty, 3D heart. I think the hardest one for me was the star because there were so many lines to keep track of and they just ended up going everywhere.

Patia Wilson, who is an accomplished artist, drew for Ruapotaka School a picture of Superman in under 7 minutes. He used pastels and mainly the colours dark blue, light blue, red, yellow, black and cream on a pitch black canvas. He used smudging in the end and autographed it in deep purple.
