    VIDEO DESCRIPTION
    How to draw in perspective: This drawing tutorial provides drawing tips and a basic introduction to understanding the fundamental principles of linear perspective. We will discuss how to do a linear perspective drawing in one point ( 1-point,1 point, one-point ) perspective, two point ( 2 point, 2-point, two-point ) perspective, and three point ( 3 point, 3-point, three-point ) perspective.
    This can help set the foundation for drawing a house, room, building, street, city, background, etc. using linear perspective

    I am an Interior design Student; and for us, Perspective are very very important.
    This Video is so far the best one I've encountered, You actually explained far better than what my faculty has been doing.
    This Video is really really helpful
    I didn't know how this could be brought out to something simple at the end once we understand the Basics
    And all your Videos are so helpful in terms of understanding in simple terms
    Thank You and Keep going for more.

    i've always been afraid to pick up trying to learn perspective again, i tried alot of books and art classes in high school and the way everyone explained it never really made sense to me, the humiliation and frustration of not having the concept click with me was enough to deter me from picking it back up for a while. i decided to pick it up on a whim tonight, hoping someone could explain it to me- the way you really thoroughly broke it down has confidently helped me to finally grasp perspective in my mind, i feel like i can really understand it now and start studying it! many thanks!!!!!!!!

    I searched all over the internet, practiced perspective, 3D, and foreshortening for weeks, never understood what I was doing nor did my work improve. Then I found your video tutorials Alphonso, I want to thank you for teaching the concept of this very difficult endeavor in a way that is systematic, thorough and easy to understand. You have helped me to improve my drawing tremendously and gotten me past a brick wall. Thank you for your tutorials and I will continue to follow you. When I feel like I'm good enough, I'll draw a picture and post it here :)

    Perspective is a mind-blowin' thing. I learned it in high school art class a few centuries back, it still amazes me. You know you respect it when you keep a 6' ruler and a big block of wood with a screw in it as an anchoring point for drawing subtle perspective. ;-)

    @cracer112 10 років тому +17

    One of the best explanations by far that I've seen about perspective without all the professionalism and technical jargon found in schools. Your teaching is more educational than instructive. A quality that is rare among teachers today. I often find that this is one of the main reasons why so many students have a hard time learning anything. The teachers seem to care more about being "professional" and sounding super intelligent, then they care about actually making a connection with their students. This is why I generally don't like tutorials as they are almost always about following instructions and not explaining the thought process or the reasoning behind why certain things work the way that they do. Your teaching method reflects your art. Complex > simple > complex. Anyway, your videos are superb. You just earned yourself another subscriber! :)
