Overview
The Complete Guide to Perspective covers everything that an artist needs to know to get the perspective right in drawings and paintings. It strips this daunting subject back to its simplest principles and shows how, once these have been grasped, the other, apparently more complex rules, simply build on the basic concept. The principles of perspective are developed in a series of step-by-step projects, from one-, two- and three-point perspective, to different viewpoints and multi-view perspective. The reader is guided with the help of line diagrams, grids and photographs with perspective lines superimposed. The projects develop from the basics to fully-realized drawings. A wide range of subjects are explored in a variety of media and styles. This book is a must for all artists, illustrators and architects.Synopsis
