Lesson 8
“Art is the perfection of nature, … Nature is the art of God.” – Thomas Browne
Welcome to lesson 8 future educator! This lesson will be about different scapes
that we see yet we do not know that it was an art and has a name. In this part you will
discover the three major things you usually see around you. You might not appreciate
these things before but now as you learn about it you will surely learn to take these things
as a piece of art.
Vanishing point - Every picture, inside or outdoors, it has one or two vanishing
points; you just don’t see them in the finished piece.

Seascape
The horizontal line is usually water or things in or on the
water
A scene at sea (a ship on the water) or a scene including
a portion of the sea, like waves along the beach.
The water (ocean or sea) is the focal point, or a larger part
of the scene.
Landscape
The horizontal line is usually made of trees,
hills, mountains, or other natural or manmade
objects.
An outdoor view of nature, such as
mountains, rivers, sky desert, fields or forests.
Some landscapes include people, animals,
buildings (barns, houses, or sheds), quiet
roads or streets.
If people or animals are included, they are
not the focal point.
