HELP PLEASE. I've watched this first video a million times, but w/out the full plotting to the VP on the right side cabinet, I can't get the inside of that cabinet. Then when adding refrigerator, I can't make the sides line up w/ inside corners of cabinets. What am I missing? Sounds very easy rectangle on the wall & plot it forward. Why isn't this working? Thank you for your responses

In the picture on the right it looks like you have the front and back of the right hand cabinet running to the vanishing point when they should be vertical and the top and bottom corners should run to the vanishing point.

Some rooms in one point perspective and a deer I drew from a photo playing with my new fountain pen. I know I am too heavy handed and need to lighten up on my lines. I left most of the construction lines and didn’t really finish the drawings. I also found this very difficult to make look nice and clean without a straight edge.

I’m not an expert on perspective but I’ve found this to be a very good book. There is also a volume 2 which I haven’t picked up yet but definitely will.

I really got behind this summer and have just caught back up, first post since May. My lines are a little bit sloppy as I’ve been trying to use the overhand grip.

The three artists I studied were Carl Rungius, Rembrandt, and Glenn Vilppu. One thing I noticed was that I seem to be losing focus by the end of my drawings and my line consistency is almost like I am a different person by the end of the drawing and the end doesn’t match the beginning.

Top - hierarchy of importance, Bottom - shadows and light

I found the penguin somewhat harder than the others so I had to try more times. I drew the hand much faster than the other references. I am enjoying the course.

My level 2, maybe more of combining 2 images rather than drawing from imagination but I’m very happy how it turned out.

Level 1, 2nd time through. I’m still having trouble not leaving enough room on the page.

more CSI practice. I’m really struggling, not sure how to do this without plotting every point and basically doing a connect the dot or else end up with something completely out of proportion. I couldn’t add the picture, the file was too big.

Hello, this my level two, this one definitely looks a bit better than the last one, I practice further by attempting to draw this (ram/ goat??) . I'd appreciate some critic, thanks!

Looks good, you did a really good job capturing the shape of the horns. I would say the biggest issue is that the head and neck of the bighorn sheep and the head of the camel are too small. Stan mentions in the demo how we have a tendency to make parts of familiar things too small when the references are extremely foreshortened. If you look at the picture of the sheep you will see that the head and horns are pretty much the same width as the body and probably taller, and the neck is pretty thick. That is a great picture to draw.

1st try on the skull, was going to try measuring but didn’t know where to start so I eyeballed it . I haven’t watched the demo yet, hopefully it will give me a place to start for measuring and laying out something like this.

Just watched the level 2 demo and realized I completely missed the objective of the lesson. I thought it was more simplifying and getting everything in the correct position rather then line quality. I’ll definitely be going through these again.

Day - 14 wasn’t quite sure how to show depth in the leaves with line weight. Now that I’m done I think they still look too uniform.

Drawing in Minnesota I see the same thing when I look outside. Drawing looks great.

Day - 12 thought this would have been easier but it took me longer than expected.

1st try at the camel, haven’t watched the demo yet. I messed up the layout and didn’t leave room for the feet.
