Environment Design Rocks!

[AlfonsoX]

I dont think he mention perspective on notans. 
He explains that we should look for abstract shapes with nothing in our mind.

The keys beeing composition and shape design.

Use:
Pattern, contrast, emphasis, balance, scale,harmony, rythm, unity, variety
To design pleasing/beauty shapes and compositions.

Altho Amit on several of his notans demo he seems to do landscapes on perspective or even cast shadows,
 and he mention that we can do the notans to resemble real things / representational
 but the general rule for them is not to be representational.

So, Its good to have perspective but dont force it, no need for guides. If it comes naturally is fine if not, dont bother.
These are mean to be quick and brainstormy.

If you are referencing a pictur/photo you are doing the study assignment not the 100x notans.

Also try to crop you image before posting. 70% of it beeing empty. 
This thread is going to be studied over years to come as "From cube to cathedral"
We all should try to keep our posts clean and compact. Avoiding non class related stuff.

Just my 2 cents and some of the notans I've done so far.
