Visual language - Visual communication

Perspective - 

In the graphic arts, such as drawing, is an approximate representation, on a flat surface (such as paper), of an image as it is perceived by the eye. The two must characteristic features of perspective are that objects are drawn:
  • smaller as their distance from the observer increases
  • foreshortened: the size of an object's dimensions along the line of sight are relatively shorter than dimensions across the line of sight
