Asked for help
This my collection of perspective techniques, I rate them all with a 5/5.
Number one uses the convergence technique and I love the feeling of space around the two figures enjoying the view and the abstract shapes within the perspective grid for the distant constructions.
Number two uses foreshortening to exaggerate the depth of view from below the figure and the water making the viewer feel that they are about to be trodden on, along with being wet!. The technique works well with the idea of looking through water at distorted shapes.
Number three uses diminution for repeated shapes and keeps the distance even with red as a background colour.
Number four has atmospheric perspective on the background layer contrasting with the dark foreground and detailed middle ground. I like the way the atmosphere looks natural in the surroundings.
Number five is a painting by Carl Randall an artist in the UK. I like the overlapping shapes that are grouped to keep it easy to read and split the painting into three spaces. I also like it because I am it. I am the one who has shut eyes as I wasn’t very good at staying awake!

Hi, Marshal and group!
After watching this critique many times (due to my iPad spontaneously replaying videos on an opened page); I finally grasped the objective of these studies with optical illusions! I wanted to share my visual thinking and analysis based on the last shape Marshal shared (the outline one that Stepka and Mike worked on. It is a David's star rotated 90 degrees on the side, with added thickness. I elevated it from a regular square grid graph paper, which presented its own set of challenges and visual mischiefs. After playing with the shape, I have a better grasp of where we are heading with the forms.

I found the atmospheric scenes were the easiest to do and in keeping to the 15mins timings, I also like the way they turned out. The last one of the girl and child took me longer in finding the colours/values and I kept fiddling with it. Did anyone else feel the same?
