How to Draw With Perspective

Perspective can sound complicated if you’ve never done it before, but Paul Heaston takes you through the essential principles of perspective and makes them easy to understand, all while providing step-by-step instructions for exercises that help you practically apply and absorb these principles. You’ll learn about horizon lines and vanishing points, and many different ways to use them in your work.

Paul takes you through 5 different fundamental components of perspective, starting with the most simple: one-point perspective applied by drawing a room. Once you’ve mastered one-point perspective, you’ll move on to two and three-point perspective, dividing space in perspective, and finally the process of drawing ellipses in perspective. After working through the easy-to-follow exercises in this 24-page downloadable PDF guide, you’ll wonder why you ever thought it was complicated!
