Simply made art instruction videos. Nothing flashy, lessons just as I would teach them to my high school students. I have also included progress slides from my painting and drawing commissions.

    Can you make a video on how to make scenery by perspective points

  • @dianewoodsartlessonchannel2229
    @dianewoodsartlessonchannel2229Ай бұрын

    One of my videos, how to draw a room in 2 point perspective, may help, or how to draw a house in 2 point perspective. Are you thinking outdoor scenery, such as a landscape? If so, the same rules apply, just not as strict (for example, no ruler). The horizon line is your eye level, like the "divider" between sky and ground, if that helps.

    @dianewoodsartlessonchannel22294 ай бұрын

    Not quite sure what you are asking. The line first drawn is the horizon line, which is at your eye level. As for the vanishing points, they are, in this case, at each end of the horizon line. All lines that are not vertical, with the exception of a select few diagonals, end at the point. If you are asking how to tell to which vanishing point to draw the line, use your visual judgement. If you draw your line to a vanishing point and it doesn't look right, try the other one. Hope that helped.

    "You're training your eye to find those edges" . . . of all the demos and "tutorials" I've watched about how to develop continuous or contour line drawing, yours is the first I've seen that actually begins by talking about how and where you can start when considering what to draw and then how to proceed. Well done . . . I know that should be an obvious starting point (no pun tended) for any tutorial, but hardly anyone seems to cover this mental and imagination-based aspect of the process. Extremely useful. 100% thumbs up and bell rung.

    Concerning one-point perspective, start with Part 1 of my one point perspective videos and continue through Part 4. They will teach you the basics. As for 2 point, I would look around to find a beginner video. Unfortunately, I haven't got one on my channel yet. The room and house videos were a lesson for my second year students. Also, since it's an exam, I am guessing you already have an idea of what the teacher will ask you to do. Practice that. Good luck- let me know how it goes.

    When you first draw the edges of the window, you use the point opposite of where you're working, i.e. left wall, right point. To create depth in the window, use the other point. Go back to that part and listen to the explanation. Good luck!
