Foundations of art and design test 2

hello, for those of you who are studying for the Foundations of Art and Design Test 2, I have created this quiz. I hope it helps you in a small way and if you are taking this for the test, I wish you good luck!

remember, this quiz only goes over chapter 4 in the Living with Art book. I would have done more to go over chapter 5, but I guess it only has 60 questions in total. enjoy my quiz! and don't feel down if you get a low score :)

one-point vs. two-point.
- one-point-where all parallel lines in a scene converge at a single vanishing point on the horizon line. two-point- where parallel lines that recede into the distance appear to converge at two separate points on the horizon line.
- two- point-where all parallel lines in a scene converge at a single vanishing point on the horizon line. one-point- where parallel lines that recede into the distance appear to converge at two separate points on the horizon line.
