  2. Contour drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contour_drawing

    In a continuous-line drawing, the artist looks both at the subject and the paper, moving the medium over the paper, and creating a silhouette of the object. Like blind contour drawing, contour drawing is an artful experience that relies more on sensation than perception; it's important to be guided by instinct. [2]

  3. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    The assembly drawing gives the drawing numbers of the subsequent detailed components, quantities required, construction materials and possibly 3D images that can be used to locate individual items. Although mostly consisting of pictographic representations, abbreviations and symbols are used for brevity and additional textual explanations may ...

  4. Cross section (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_section_(geometry)

    The boundary of a cross-section in three-dimensional space that is parallel to two of the axes, that is, parallel to the plane determined by these axes, is sometimes referred to as a contour line; for example, if a plane cuts through mountains of a raised-relief map parallel to the ground, the result is a contour line in two-dimensional space ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Site_plan

    Such a plan of a site is a "graphic representation of the arrangement of buildings, parking, drives, landscaping and any other structure that is part of a development project". [2] A site plan is a "set of construction drawings that a builder or contractor uses to make improvements to a property. Counties can use the site plan to verify that ...

    Drawing, says Edwards, has five component skills of perception and drawing: [4] Edges and lines (includes copying drawings and contour drawing exercises) Negative space (i.e. space between items) Relationships (i.e. perspective and proportion between things) Light and shadows (shading) The whole: gestalt which emerges as the first four are ...

    Contour drawing – Chiaroscuro – using strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects such as the human body. Gesture Drawing - loose drawing or sketching with the wrists moving, to create a sense of naturalism of the line or shape, as opposed to geometric or mechanical drawing ...

  8. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    A 3D projection (or graphical projection) is a design technique used to display a three-dimensional (3D) object on a two-dimensional (2D) surface. These projections rely on visual perspective and aspect analysis to project a complex object for viewing capability on a simpler plane.

  9. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    [2] [3] Typically in axonometric drawing, as in other types of pictorials, one axis of space is shown to be vertical. In isometric projection , the most commonly used form of axonometric projection in engineering drawing, [ 4 ] the direction of viewing is such that the three axes of space appear equally foreshortened , and there is a common ...
