This is really making me realise how terrible the art classes I took in my first few years of high school were. Nothing about perspective, nothing about actual colour theory, nothing about proper draftsmanship, just 'here's a colour wheel now draw a tree now here come up with a pattern, slice your fingers off carving it into a piece of plywood and break your arms trying to use our ancient printing press to print it in ink that's so old it doesn't transfer 75% of the time, have fun kids'
@@djyownder109 more advanced/detailed areas of it, maybe, but it’s the kind of thing that overlaps into both, especially in early classes where you’re still learning fundamentals?
in my school, in art classes the teacher's just like: "alr uuh, it was this teacher's birthday today so let's do a birthday drawing" I've never had a single art teacher that is ACTUALLY informed about the subject, which is a bit sad tbh
@@estefaniaicardi In middle school we did one point perspective drawing once. Kinda makes me wish I was more engaged in that class since I'm now trying to learn how to draw now
no don't they'll hate you this will endup being just another geometry class. keep it more fun let them draw what they like, these things are for later when some of them actually take up art seriously.
You guys have no idea if he’s going to implement this technique in a completely accessible and fun manner,l. There’s so much utility and advantages of learning things like these early so please don’t bust this teachers nuts
Oh my god…his lines in the first exercise. They aren’t perfect? They aren’t perfectly straight like lines “should” be?? Finally! My self doubt and perfectionism will, hopefully, slowly crumble now that I see an amazing artist like this man doesn’t always make a perfect straight line. Now hopefully I won’t hate myself when trying to draw straight lines. Time to get some line confidence baby!
Thanks for starting with a couple of basic exercises. I've been intimidated with starting to draw but those exercises are simple ways to improve penmanship and you dont have much expectation of a good outcome. Really helpful.
My first college degree in 1974 was Commercial Art, now known as Graphic Art. I went to work in the Graphics Dept of Bechtel Corporation. The company had a Drafting Training Program and they offered me a chance to take it. We had our own class room sectioned off from the main engineering departments. It was set up as a full-time paid apprenticeship, working a regular 40 hour week. Over the course of three months we learned all aspects of drafting and design, electrical, mechanical, architecture. We graduated with certification in Drafting/Design. I loved it so much I went back to college taking night classes and got my second degree in 1980 in Electrical Mechanical Drafting Design. In those years everything was done 'on the board' (drafting board) with the physical drawing instruments. There were no computers. It was similar to my art training, tools and materials. I'm 71 and my favorite subject is still perspective. For me the two disciplines of art and mechanical drawing/drafting are interwoven, almost one and the same. My favorite pastime is sketching objects and compositions in orthographic and isometric views. It is very relaxing and my form of doodling. 😊
Ah dude, the fact that you advice people to make straight lines and circle for practise -before- drawing, is everything. I learned it in Graphic school as well, never forgot it.
If you have Procreate (iPad app), there’s an option to set and change your perspective to anything you want. Then you can see all those guidelines (can make them brighter/darker). There’s also a helper option that snaps the line to your perspective as you draw. This is so helpful in learning how to draw in perspective. I’m still learning, but being able to draw exactly proportional boxes as a frame for a character is really handy. I’m at a stage where my mind almost got the whole light/shadow thing figured out, but I want to break out of single-perspective mode so that my characters pop out of the painting and there’s good overall depth.
i've been through all of your videos and i gotta say that you've the most beautiful and useful chanel on this red world, u deserve more views than u do now, thanks a lot for your effort cuz you letterally steped up my drawing skills with those lil advices, all the love and respect for you
I watched your playlist in 2021 when I started studying art fundamentals and spent the last two years studying. Thank you very much, thanks to you and other artists like you, I improved my technique =DD
Thanks for these tutorials. I'm currently trawling through How to Draw myself, and these videos help a lot. I feel like some stuff isn't very thoroughly explained, or maybe it just doesn't click with me. Either way, good videos!
@@yourboybaj2877 Damn wrote this comment 3 years ago. I mean I'm better than I was but I shamefully dropped art quite a bit. Been doing music and other stuff since. I really have to get back to it. Thanks for asking.
Having just started out in the art world and having watched many a tutorial which I struggled to understand and with just one viewing of your tutorial I have learnt so much and look forward to putting it to practice. Thank you so much for your approach to teaching the likes like myself. Keep safe
Hey dude, I was wondering "this video thumbnail, it's from THE book" so you are an actual person that proves that Scott's books are working ! This is really great.
Quality content! When I was in school we studied Scott Robertson's book on perspective. This gives me a lot of good memories and is a great refresher!!
Here to try and learn how to draw fantasy landscapes. I learned perspective back then, but I think I'm getting things wrong, so I decide to relearn stuff. Wish me luck and good luck guys!
3 point perspective has 3 points don't know why he never showed you the 3rd point but essentially your vertical lines would all go to the 3rd point wither your 3rd point is above the horizon line or bellow. (In his case the 3rd point would be bellow the horizon line off the page)
Ive been drawing animals and architectural things since 4, im now 15, and everywhere i go, people would always compliment! But, the best fact is, when i heard that you have a drawing position, that really stuck to me, because i find it lets you draw angles verry verry well, and i though that was something all artist have. My angle of drawing and writing is around 150° to about 215° thankyou, but this is because ive been drawing almost every day since i was 4, and always watch my surpundings observing how things are in terms of angles. Thankyou! Their is also nothing called armature or pro in art, because every artis has a different style, so when someone says ypur a noob, that just says ypu domt have enough experience, or they just can figure out ypu have a style, but that is also why they cant draw anybetter than you, they got no style at all.
This is probably the most concise explanation I've come across for perspective so far. Thank you. Also thanks for the book references as well. Looking to update my knowledge, these books seem right up my alley.
Thank you, thumbs way up, subbed with notifications. I need to absorb what I can, drawing challenges my understanding a lot and can be frustrating. But I enjoy sketching as it tends to be like a mind-therapy.
I often practice exercise 1 and 3 (lines, circles, and curves). But I've never heard of exercise 2: texturing. It looks like a fun and productive exercise I'll love to try. Thanks for the video series on perspective. It was super helpful ✨👍💕
Yooooo, I watched your videos and it's amazing! You sir inspire me to keep pushing my practice on art. Keep on doing what you're doing. More power to you and your channel.
4:39 Something I feel never gets mentioned: This object is NOT a box (i.e. the angles at the corners are not all 90 degrees). I don’t know if that omission is intentional or not, but I think it’s incredibly important to realize.
I've been an artist all my life but never took an art class or studied art in anyway - I always just went pencil to paper and drew what I saw in my mind - really cool to see you break down perspective like this and understand what my brain must be thinking and understanding subconsciously when I've been drawing all this time
Great video, just some feedback on the initial exercises. It might be worth talking a bit more about how to move your body/arm to draw straight lines. A beginner might practice using just their wrist, and get either frustrated or develop an inferior habit. The texture exercise is something I haven't seen before, and it would be nice to learn a bit more about the kinds of techniques you can use to render a texture. Excited to try it out though and see for myself all the same.
I'm not sure if I'm on the right track but at first I couldn't really see the difference between 2 point and 3 point perspective.. But I think I understand the difference now that I think about it a different way. It could be viewed like a three story house. The first/top floor (1 point) can be looked at by itself. The second floor is almost directly in front of you.. You don't really need to look to see it. The third floor(3 point) is like looking at the basement without seeing the other floors; it's almost like seeing through the ground. Now that I've looked at what I've written it looks like complete rubbish.. But it's hard to put my thoughts into words.
What I learned here is to copy paste an existing form at the bottom and rotate 190 degrees to put on the top of hl for faster productivity when doing some projects
Is it possible to apply perspective to actually tilting objects? I already know how to make a cube in 1, 2 ,3 perspective but after that I'm lost. It would be universally helpful knowing in what way lines will go when the cube is in that very position.
Nice job though would have been more helpful if we saw the third point and heard how it is useful. I've used the other two but three point I haven't yet used. Before watching this I had wanted to make a similar video about exercises and still might while trying not to copy though only the line and circles were similar in what I was going to do. Keep up the good work.
You should definitely refer all of your fans and students to the website DrawABox, they basically teach all the same exercises and theories you're trying to teach but in much more depth. Great video by the way!
Pretty much everytime I do a perspective grid the third VP would be way above or below the canvas (e.g. a simple shot of a room where you can't have extreme perspective but you need three VPs). So how do you make that accurate without adding a second piece of paper etc.? Is there a good way to calculate it? Or would you just eyeball it?
How do you traditionally deal with setting up the COV to reduce distortion in your perspective grids ? Is it best to buy ellipse or circle templates for this or should you try eye balling it till you get better ? Scott's book covers how to set it up but it seems a little technical to do traditionally.
i didn't realise i was doing 1, 2, 3 point perspective but i am. i also use the horizon and beyond. like my height n stuff. looking at things from bottom up or opposite.
Just took my first class of gesture/figure drawing for animation, and while my gesture drawings are actually quite good, my perspective is ridiculously bad 😭 so yep here I am
I have a doubt that I am doing, when I make the 2nd box based on the lines of the 1st box, it does not add up, the lines move a little to the left or right and I already did it in digital and it still happens to me why?
The book recommends rotating the paper when you want change the line direction. Do you practice drawing vertical and oblique straight lines as well? I'm asking because maybe one would want to draw on larger sized paper and rotating the whole thing would become a little tedious... Thanks for the video. Made me want to get the book :).
Hey moderndayjames! do you have any book to suggest to deepen the perspective drawing and all the rules behind the drawing? keep up with your interesting videos! thank you for sharing ;)
Ok I just found your videos while searching some guides to get started in better sketching/designing. First off your content is great! But I have to be honest i couldn't nearly reproduce the textures like you did, even with looking at texture samples online. My drawing is aweful so maybe it is caused by that but is there any hint you could give me to get better at reproducing something like those textures?
I’ve watched tons of video about perspective, but I’m wondering why nobody mention the most Important part: how to know where to draw the behind part of the cube in 1 point perspective for instance? How to figure the right top and the bottom of the back side of a cube? I have a feeling that there’s some math behind.
@@moderndayjames Mine it was more of the fact that they were cheaper brands and a bit outdated. Unfortunately I am stuck waiting for some money to free up before I can replace them. Really wish there was a good place to find a cheap starter kit for getting started. Too much information and options seem to be a constant when it comes to learning art and it causes the path to become muddy and unclear. Something like a basic sketchbook or two, a small fineliner set, and some pencils (sketching pencils, mechanical pencils, and/or lead holders) in the 4 middle grades (B, HB, F, & H) with maybe a course akin to Drawabox or Mark Kistler's How to draw in 30 days (maybe both) to get them started...
This is really making me realise how terrible the art classes I took in my first few years of high school were.

any fine liner will do my friend, it's just a felt tip pen!
@@moderndayjames I guess I have horrible luck with fine liners. Haven't gotten one that marks as smooth as that one.
it's most likely a matter of line control, hold your pen further back and use your arm when creating straight lines
