LESSON NOTES

What's in Premium?

Three-point perspective offers complete freedom for rotation in any direction, unlike one or two-point perspectives. It involves converging all three axes, and is especially useful for dramatic angles. The "Y trick" simplifies starting a three-point perspective sketch by using a basic "Y" shape to establish the orientation of a box, then determining convergence and proportions intuitively. This approach encourages practicing an intuitive understanding of perspective, emphasizing the importance of aesthetics over mathematical precision when sketching.

Three-point perspective offers complete freedom to rotate objects in any direction. I'll break down the basics for you and introduce the "Y trick," a simple technique that makes drawing objects in 3-point perspective a lot easier.

A very good practice for straights; some straights more confident than others. A good warm up for sure.
