Learning to Draw Perspective

One point, two point and three point perspective
Mastering perspective drawing is critical for depicting space in your artwork, if your work requires a depiction of space.  For some art, learning perspective is not necessary.  But just in case you do need some perspective in your artwork, the following steps should help.  (1)  Establish the horizon line (your eye level). (2)  Establish the vertical height of the object closest to you.  (3)  Draw lines radiating from the vertical height to a point on the horizon line.  These points on the horizon line are the vanishing point(s).  (4)  Fill in all other vertical elements and make sure all horizontal elements project back to the vanishing point(s).  Enjoy!
