One point perspective drawing tip #drawingtutorial #howtodraw #arttutorial #drawing

You know what i find interesting is while the top might technically be incorrect, to me it somewhat has a cartoonish feel to it, like a Toon Town type place. It's not visually realistically correct perhaps but its fun and different stylistically in its own way. It was interesting to see the comparison thanks!

[Missnidski]

Thank you. I have a painting that I need to use this strategy for

I remember my dad teaching me 1, 2, and 3 point perspective and I'm so glad for it. Such useful knowledge! Glad you're out here teaching it :)

I messed up a drawing so badly bc I didn’t know this, thank you so much!!

[Stebeway]

Ooh, same for room drawing furniture pieces. I just started learning and this is helpful!! Thank you.

[Hermionee-Jean-Granger]

damn that's actually great, thanks a lot!

[memesalldayjack]

showing the right and wrong way side by side for easy comparison is pretty good

i really like the top one (before the fixing) i think it would work as a stylistic choice

(tho this wouldve helped me a lot if i still had art classes it took an embarrasing amount of time for me to understand the horizon line)

i took graphic design in high school and i’m so thankful for it everyday, i never expected it to help so much with my artwork

Finally, someone who's giving good art tips and not being too harsh on the criticism of it being incorrect and actually giving helpful tips on how to help with it 😭 other people sometimes sound so rude and forceful

Can you do one where you draw buildings with triangular roofs? Been doing this to draw a establishing of a medieval fantasy city/town but the triangular roofs kind of messes me up.

Such a helpful demo, even for beginners! Thanks!

This took me some time to realize so I hope it helps someone out there.

The horizon line where you plot the vanishing points, is not the earths horizon but position of your eye. This is why most beginners perspective drawing have a POV hovering high above ground. If you are standing on ground level your eyes are at an average standing height. In linear perspective you are projecting the height of your eye line across the view.

Ahhh, 1 point perspective, learnt it as a child and have been able to do many forms of perspective since, it is truly great

I Remember Doing This In 7th Grade. Now It's Very Relevant For Me. Even Tho I Wanted My Art To Be Good At The Time, I Wish I Would've Took It More Serious And Work On It Outside Of Class Too. But I Always Loved Art Class

This wastaught when i was younger glad someone is passing it on.

The harder part is when each building has its own features on the face of it, such as lots of windows, or balconies, etc that also have to line up with the top and bottom lines of the building...

[virtualnuke-blym]

I always just think of this:

The angle of the road that the building is sitting immediately on top of is what a flat roof's angle should should also be. If it's slanting one way or the other then you can show that, but if you want the roof to be flat then it should match the angle of the road below it.

Thank you for the tip! My drawings looks so much better now

[annonymousgal]

Thank you❤ I now know why my drawing in that perspective always bothered me 😅
