How to Draw PerspectiveLearning how to draw perspective is an easy and important skill to develop, because it gives your drawings three-dimensional appearance. In other words, perspective brings your drawings to life by giving them a sense of depth . The first thing to remember is that objects of the same size look smaller the further away they are from you. To illustrate this, I've included the following 3 pictures: First, notice how the trees look smaller and smaller the farther away they are from the viewer. Next, notice how the horizon line eventually meets with the farthest tree. That is the vanishing point. Finally, notice how the spaces between the trees also seem to get smaller and smaller. The first secret of drawing perspective, therefore, is to become aware of space, spacing, and apparent relative size of the objects in relation to the viewer's horizon. Once you get used to using the above techniques, you're drawings will be one more step further towards your artistic goals. Now... go out there and draw something! ![]() ![]() Intro to Drawing | Figure Drawing | Intro to Sketching| Color Theory | Oil Painting | Water Colors | Acrylics | Charcoal Crayon | Still Life Painting | Painting Equipment | Painting Canvas | Art Glossary | Painting Outdoors | Perspective | Painting Tips and Techniques| Angel Drawing Prints and Posters | Link to This Site| Privacy Policy and Terms of Use
