    My goodness, out of all the perspective tutorial I watched, this is the easiest to understand and answered most of my questions. Thank you so much for uploading this video! This is a big help for me since I just had the courage to tackle on perspective.

    Very lucid. Perspective is something I always struggled with and could not grasp how a vanishing point is created. Really appreciate your great tutorial . Bless you.

    Finally! Perspective explained in a way I can understand! Showing how eye lines affect horizons and detailing VP is super helpful. Repeating a couple of times that all these elements are determined by the artist rather than the artist being forced to conform to measured VP and perspectives is exactly what I needed to hear.

    Hi Dan. I am a 73 yr old lady and really enjoyed your tutorial on perspective drawing, but will need to revisit many times l think to grasp the understanding and retain the knowledge which is not going to be easy at my age😵‍💫 hopefully I will get there 🙏 Thanks for the lesson.

    Most useful video for understanding the logic of how perspective is derived from our real vision. Super helpful for understanding how to apply perspective when trying to draw from life. Too many basic "1,2,3 point perspective" videos out there. This is what people truly need. Thank you for taking the time.

    thank you SO much for making this video! this is the only video on perspective that i've watched over several years that has actually made any sense to me. i appreciate you starting from SUPER basics and fully explaining what a horizon line even is (thinking of it as a camera as you mentioned actually makes more sense to me than calling it the horizon line) and comparing and contrasting the different points of view for the three people on different levels. also taking the time to include and walk through so many examples and zooming out to show how vanishing points change and how far out of the frame they usually are. that was always so confusing to me and i thought i was doing something wrong when i couldn't find the vanishing points within the canvas of my drawings.

    I like how you seem as annoyed and tired as I am of people explaining the horizon lines with the typical empty landscape image, its so dumb. You did a great job explaining this.
    I've tried many times to understand, I know the theory and the concepts by heart now, but I am looking for excercises to improve the perspective in my drawings because my brain just doesn't seem to get it when I begin to draw.

    • @Doomblick
      @Doomblick 3 роки тому +1

      Place your Vanishing points far off the canvas, so that when you draw your objects close to the edge of the canvas, they don't distort. Things start to distort the closer the vanishing points are to an object

    Amazing explanation, thanks for creating this! It did raise for me with some questions:
    04:26 This had me thinking: if you were able to travel away from Earth in a straight line, unimpeded by gravity, while keeping this horizon at the center of your viewpoint and see Earth and its horizon further and further away until you can see the curvature of the planet itself, does that not mean that there will be a point where the horizon line no longer follows the curvature of the planet? And would it straddle the highest point of the circle that becomes Earth's circumference?
    12:40 This might just be me, but can three vanishing points make pictures feel more... distorted somehow? There's something almost uncanny or unnatural about it.
    17:25 This particular image stood out to me. Do I understand correctly that each object has its own vanishing points here?
