net (about the previous edtion) Master essential perspective drawing techniques in this small, simple and straightforward guide by well-respected artist and tutor, Tim Fisher .
Beginning with a fascinating history of perspective in art and the key materials you'll need, the key principles of perspective such as zero-point, single-point, two-point and multipoint perspectives are then explored.
Approachable exercises support each precept - ranging from simple box diagrams through to complex scenes - and allow you to study and practise each technique easily and with gradual difficulty.
Through application, the reader can understand how to create the illusion of space and three-dimensionality in their own work.
Myriad subjects are explored throughout the book, including buildings, landscapes, people, animals, boats and reflections.
Expert advice on drawing curved objects and inclined planes, a run-down of common mistakes and an inspirational chapter looks beyond a rigid application of the rules to draw your scenes freely and instinctively.
This is a revitalized edition of Drawing Masterclass: Perspective (Search Press, 2017).
