About this Project (3- How do artists create space in art?)
Artists often aim to make their drawings or paintings appear three-dimensional, as if you could step right into the scene. Despite being on a flat piece of paper, artists use techniques like overlapping, varying heights and sizes, and employing linear perspective to create the illusion of depth and distance.
One-point perspective is a type of linear perspective that uses mathematics to create the illusion of space. It's called "one-point" because there's only one vanishing point, unlike two, three, or four-point perspectives.
Third grade students used colored paper to create an aquarium, employing one-point perspective techniques
Jackson G. Smith is a 10-year-old student at Martin J. Gottlieb Day School who has embraced his passion for art from a young age. Inspired by his grandfather, artist David Eldridge Smith, Jackson discovered his love for creativity in Kindergarten while studying under the guidance of S. Gutterman, the school’s beloved art teacher. Through these early experiences, Jackson has developed a deep appreciation for self-expression and the emotional impact of art.
His grandfather, David Eldridge Smith, was once quoted “The true worth in art lies in the emotions it can relieve or inspire. I see everyone as having talent in some area, and people should pursue their gifts. If you can't find commercial worth that makes you money, find something that makes you rich inside. All the money in the world can't get you happiness.”
Jackson embodies this philosophy in his work, demonstrating that artistic talent is not only a means of expression but also a source of personal fulfillment.
