![Marshall Vandruff]()
Let’s explore the 600-year history of perspective in art. We'll start with the Renaissance, where artists like Uccello and Leonardo da Vinci first mastered perspective. We'll then trace its spread across Europe, its establishment as a foundational skill, and its transformation by movements such as Impressionism and Expressionism. Finally, we'll examine its enduring impact, from Japanese woodblock prints to contemporary comics and animation.
Went ahead and attempted my very first perspective drawing/sketch. I learned how important it was match the direction of your lines while drawing. Also creating some sort of grid before hand was so helpful me because it feels like bumper lanes in bowling. Helps keep your drawing from going into the trash due to making your objects look out of perspective/un real.
