Perspective Drawing - Teach Yourself to Draw

In this episode of "Teach Yourself to Draw", we will talk about perspective. This episode is a little bit different from what I usually cover on this channel, but it would be a shame to draw great pictures with inaccurate perspective. The fundamental principles of perspective are always important to know. This is what I'll cover in this video. Hope it helps !

About me (bio) :
I am an artist living and working in France. I learned the techniques of the Atelier of the Nineteenth century and now I try to share some of my knowledge with the rest of the world, because I think that beauty still has an important role to play in artistic creation. I do mostly drawing and oil painting, and my goal is always to provide techniques and explanations that can be useful to anyone, from beginners to more advanced artists.

    Speaking of perspective, today I am painting a very tiny woman using a mushroom as an umbrella. It's been so long since I've drawn at an eagle's perspective, that when I tried to add rain, I got dizzy from the illusion I made. I guess I'm doing well.

    How do we know that the ones on the floor correspond to squares? In the video you intersected all the lines going to the vanishing point with one line that had a certain angle with the horizontal line, but was that angle special? How do I know that I'm not drawing rectangles on that floor?

    So the horizontal horizon vanishing point is an optical effect due to perspective? So NOT Earth curve as claimed by the heliocentric model via earth curve calculators. Ok...Got it...Thanks :D

    Unfortunately not basic enough for me.. you just draw things without first telling us what you plan to draw. " Now I want to draw a building on the left side. It should be facing to the street ... " And then let us follow your choises and decitions aloud. " I want it to look tall, so this it a good place to draw a line.."
