When we think of perspective, we tend to over complicate things. So, before we start drawing boxes in 1, 2, and 3 point perspectives, let's go over the 6 simple principles that create the illusion of depth in your drawings.

I teach Animation and work with my students to improve their drawing fundamentals. I find it really hard to explain perspective in a simple and fun way, but you guys are doing an excellent job at it.

i took a short break and now i'm ready to tackle the Rhythms lessons that scares the hell out of me. Then catch back up to do the depth lesson.

Good luck, I spent several weeks on that one, but it paid off!

Perspective is my main interest in the whole course as here I lack knowledge the most and i found it extremely hard to find sources that do not make it all look like black magic. Can't wait for upcoming lessons!

Very nice to show the perspective and overlap with the elephants.

Looking forward to the lesson though in the meantime can I ask for some homework?

Practice those straight line warmups I showed you earlier in the course. You'll be drawing A LOT of lines in this perspective course, so it'll be helpful if you're comfortable with it. Also, you can watch these older free lessons:

Take an empty toilet role and draw it in all kinds of angles as warming up to perspective... Same with a box...
