Toolkit - Perspective, Composition, Rule of Thirds

In one of Jordan's earlier classes we worked on perspective and composition. I wasn't well for the class but I've caught up looking at other people's blogs and looking at the material from the lesson! This blog is about a month late but I'm finally trying to prioritise getting my backlog of work all uploaded and finished, so expect a lot of previous stuff in the next few days!

At first I worked on perspective. I've already done the perspective exercises traditionally, but I've also completed some digital ones too. Here's what I've done to practice:




I've also researched on making a good composition which involves the rule of thirds. The teaching is that by drawing a 3x3 grid on your page you can use the lines as a guide to create a 'good' composition. The horizon is meant to sit on the lower horizontal line, and points of interest are meant to fall on any of the lines (or at least close to where the lines are, or where they intersect). I've included a photograph as an example below.
