DRAWING ELLIPSES at MIKE SIBLEY FINE ART
The Ellipse How accurately must I draw an ellipse? Very accurately! The eye of the viewer can detect any irregularity in a shape that it fully understands. A "square" that does not have sides of equal length, a "circle" that is not circular and an "ellipse" that deviates from perfection is immediately noted as being not what it claims to be - or, more precisely, it is not what the eye expects to see in that situation and is detected as being "foreign". In short, a "circular" circle is accepted in passing and the overall reality of the scene is maintained. What is an Ellipse? An ellipse is simply a circle seen in perspective. Breaking the problem down So, as with the circle, an ellipse contains four identical segments. Study the geometry Now let's draw a box around our ellipse so we can properly study the geometry of one of those segments. First attempts Keep your template or computer-drawn examples handy - they'll help you to draw the right curves in the following exercises.
