  1. Hey, Julienne. I'm glad to see you're tackling this assignment so quickly. Let me make just a couple of remarks and a suggestion: 1. Leonardo DaVinci definitely makes extensive use of 1-point perspective, but neither of your examples really show it. Look through DaVinci's work again and see if you can find some good examples (his Lord's Supper is one). 2. The second Piranesi drawings looks a bit more like 1-point perspective than 2-point. 3. M.C. Escher was a great choice for 3-point perspective because he was an artist who really tried to show how perspective could be manipulated in a way to make space look UNrealistic.
