Hi, I'd like to learn perspective to make environments with a lot of characters in them. I want the characters to interact with the world. I also want the environment to feel alive and 'used'. Some of my favourite artists/art are Aristocats background (don't know the artist), Kazuo Oga, James Gurney, Norman Rockwell, Ruan Jia, Yoneyama Mai, and Jakub Różalski.

Hello Marshall :) I watched so many Draftsmen episodes and learned a lot from you and Stan, and I look forward to learning perspective from you through this course. I want to be able to draw linear/manga art well.

Hello everyone. Personally I would like to have a solid knowledge to create any background from imagination, even that all elements such as props or characters look believable or as part of the same atmosphere. On the other hand, I also find it difficult to see how the vanishing points are obtained when they do not really come out within what is being seen or which is already the final result, or even how to put all those grids that comprise part of the structure of whatever is going to be drawn... I’m excited to learn, but especially to apply what I’ve learned :)

I want to be able to draw environments, props, characters and vehicles in any angle I want from my imagination. I tend to rely on 3D models to draw things I'm not really comfortable drawing in perspective which, I want to get better at.

I would love to be able to draw scenes, objects, and figures from any angles without having to spend hours finding the perfect specific reference I need to do so I want to finally be able to train my eye and brain to visualize the 3d space in front of me I want to be able to integrate organic and inorganic forms/structures seamlessly in a piece I love drawing dynamic drawings and would love to be able to enhance that with knowledge and mastery of pulling it together with perspective.

I would like to build scenes from any angle without blocking myself. Familiarize myself with the creative process. Create illustrations that go beyond simple observation, adding characters that integrate with the context. I would like to draw slices of life. But what matters most to me is being able to create a story and evoke emotions.

Hello y'all! I'm Anh. I would love to be able to draw churches, but also scenes involving grand buildings in contrast to small human beings. Being able to draw from imagination is the goaliest of goals for me!

Hi! I'm Carrie. I joined 6/25/2025. I'd really like to learn to draw organic things in perspective like figure work, plants and animals. I am also interested in designing cities and interiors from imagination.

Hi- I am Cathy and joined in the conversation 6/25/25. I am interested in botanical illustration as well as general principles of perspective. I want to be able to illustrate from real life rather than from photographs.

I want to be able to draw primitives in realistic-looking relationships to each other when they're not nicely aligned or all in the same orientation. For example, 2 separate cubes on the same plane but rotated to different angles, or a 3d "peace" sign with those 3 120º angles. Along with drawing circles/ellipses in perspective (which I just flub at the moment), being able to solve these problems would help me a lot in drawing solid-looking compound objects, especially from imagination, whether they're the human form, buildings, or space ships.

Hi I'm Alma! Just bought this course since I've never really studied perspective in depth before and figured that this might just help me understand it better. My big picture goal is to create more dynamic artwork and to be able to draw in perspective from imagination without second guessing myself. And also to be able to understand how perspective grids work! Here's some works that inspire me.

Hi everyone I’m Meg! I just started this course and I’m very excited. Here are some works that inspire me. My goal for myself in this class is finding some sort of ease in designing environments and props! I find myself struggling with my perspective quite often. I’m really looking forward to really get down to the basics and fine where I’m having issues

Quite simplistic for the moment.

Hi I'm Dead. I like doing digital art and hope one day to use it to tell stories people love. Here are some of the pieces that inspire me with their use of perspective and composition. I hope to understand pieces like these more for my own work.

Hello, my name is Louise and I paint as a hobby. My goal is to understand perspective so that I can create depth, interest and fun, into future paintings and Lear a new skill. It has been enlightening looking at everybodies posts of perspective masters and I am inspired by all of them, specifically Vermeer, Franklin Booth, M C Escher, Norman Rockwell, and Gustave Dore and Albrecht Durer. Thank you.

Hi all! I work as an artist in mobile games industry. I am looking forward to: 1) Create dynamic compositions from imagination 2) Maintain accurate proportions and lighting in fantasy paintings 3) Use perspective to enhance storytelling in fantasy environments 4) Confidently rotate and place elements in perspective 5) Create believable atmosphere and light in my work 6) Break complex forms into simple shapes and place them in space 7) Combine figure drawing with perspective to anchor characters naturally in scenes For examples I picked some images I found immersive and inspiring and that I felt drew me into their fantasy worlds. I would love to learn what makes them work and how I could apply similar ideas in my own art.

omg I absolutely loved that cartoon! :)

Here are some examples of types of perspective shots I'd like to be able to draw. Problems I'd like to solve with perspective are drawing and placing characters correctly so that they look grounded and naturally part of an environment. I'd like to be able to concept out ideas for character designs, props, buildings, and various other types of environments for a comic book/manga and illustration. I would like to draw the human form from any angle and make my drawings more dynamic using perspective as a tool to do so. I would like to learn to think like a director so that I can choose exciting and engaging angles for illustrations and comic book/manga panels.

I really want to learn to use perspective to amp up the drama and storytelling of the images I draw and paint. I love art where wide angles, deep shots or crazy distorted perspective can turn the volume up past eleven. I also love art that creates the feeling of epic scale and importance and have noticed that perspective can be used as a compositional tool to enhance these effects. I’m especially interested in learning how to incorporate and ground figures and props within scenes in a way that feels natural to enhance the stories and themes within my future artwork.

I'm an beginner. I like 2d animation especially japan one. 1) I want to draw from imagination 2) Draw correct proportion in perspective 3) Use perspective for storytelling, foreshortening, and create dynamic angle 5) Make believable environment without it look fake Artist: Ten-ten, Novelance, Tyler Edlin, Luhan wang, Fuzichoco. I particularly love ten-ten because he can combine perspective and anatomy he has awesome solid, structure and gesture. So he can make dynamic organic form in perspective
