I took an entire class on perspective that lasted 6 weeks and you nailed it much fast and much simpler. Thank you. It is always good to go back to basics especially when sketching buildings in a scene.

Great way to summarize for the beginner like me. Verticals are Vertical and Horizon lines extend from the vanishing point. And Horizon line is at eye level.

[delphinewood]

So well explained. And helpful! Thanks.

[vickyking]

thank you for making it very simple and clear

[donaldkennedy]

superb - fastest, simplest, easiest explanation/demo of perspective.... other YouTubers take Hours to say what you said in 5mins ;)

Thanks. Another tip: If you want to subdivide a rectangle wall into two equal parts, just draw the diagonals and the intersection point is where you must draw the vertical line just in the middle of the wall. You can repeat the process as many times you need to subdivide.

Excellent addition to my current knowledge on perspective. Question: If I am sitting down urban sketching my personal perspective will be lower on the whole scene than if I was at eye level with the people moving through the scene. It seems obvious but I haven’t really thought about that. I often try to find the place I am not looking up at or down on. An even plane to my view to find my locational horizon line. It’s that putting too fine a point on it?

[elizabethg]

Hi Toby, I am finding your tutorials very helpful, straightforward, and easy to follow. It is it possible to put all you lessons into a book? I had thought for a minute you had something, but it was that other guy...lol.

Perspective is the hardest for me to understand. If all vertical lines stay vertical, how do you decide the angle of slanted (end of) the roof?

[elements]

Wow that's cool.. thank you. What would be the perspective line if we are making a live Sketch by sitting on a slope?

[davidwang]

thanks ! could you tell us how to apply this rules when we draw a real building ? do we first draw a horizontal line in the middle of the paper ? then follow your steps ?

[lesliel]

All well and good when the vanishing points fall on the page, but when they don't then what?

[johnstark]

its hard to find drawing lessons in person
