Each box will be different because of your eye level. Fold paper into 3 by 3. Draw boxes inside fold lines. These fold lines are your “frames” of your tunnels. Make a dot in the middle of the middle box. This dot is your vanishing point & eye level. Connect each corner of the box that does not cut through the frames. You cannot draw in the frames, only in the tunnels. Have a constant light source. Mine is at top center. 2 opposing sides should be shaded medium. One side should be dark and opposing side light. As the tunnel goes back towards the vanishing point, it should also get darker. Click Art above to get more in depth with project Source Unknown Showing Boxes rather than tunnels. ESSENTIAL QUESTION: Using the clues from above on Eye Level, Foreshortened Circles, and Contour Line, Are these Japanese Lanterns at, below, or above your eye level?
