Past Perspectives

These are a little old, but I want to give everyone a bit of a taste of each of the different kinds of things I want to post here. Perspective is an important aspect to making any drawing look "right." If something is askew our eyes pick up on it right away - similar to proportions of the human body - our brain knows how things are supposed to work.

Perspective is something I'd like to revisit again. I forget about it all too often when it is something that should be constantly taken into account while drawing. Here are some perspective exercises I did a long while back.

Just some furniture made using two point perspective. Notice that people's eyes are all at the same level (for people of the same height of course). That's why the horizon line is also called the eye line.

Practicing circular objects in perspective. Projecting lines, for the teacup plate, is a useful way to make things look right.

Reflections are a bit mind bending. Definitely need to practice this more. 

Stairs and slopes - got to watch out for them!
