Can you explain how cone of vision works and how does it affect the drawings? When studying from reality we always see things in the same cone of vision, so it is hard for me to study to draw something for example in curvilinear perspective, as we don't see things in that way in reality.

What's your method to calculate the vanishing points when they are out of the page or canvas?

Hi Dave! Here is my question: How to balance the usage of references and imagination when drawing comics? For comic book artists the references will help in a lot of situations, but a lot of the drawings will come from imagination. Specially for example for dynamic poses, sometimes you won't be able to find the specific reference you need. Also, some of the best poses come from imagination as they are more dynamic than a reference. I am wondering, how to avoid using too much reference or not using enough reference? This from the point of view of drawing specifically comics. PD: I am a big fan of your Youtube Channel. I always watch Monday Night draws. Thank you so much for all your effort and help for us the aspiring artists. You are a great inspiration.

For later viewers, this question is answered around 35:25. EDIT: Study other artists who make really dramatic poses. Studying the constraints one's body has and the "tension points" help create powerful and dynamic poses.
