Went ahead and attempted my very first perspective drawing/sketch. I learned how important it was match the direction of your lines while drawing. Also creating some sort of grid before hand was so helpful me because it feels like bumper lanes in bowling. Helps keep your drawing from going into the trash due to making your objects look out of perspective/un real.

Thank you so much. I'm a bit tardy b cause in the hospital last year but feeling better now. I paid for Perspective Class. I'm still interested and plan to pick up where I left off near the beginning.

So cool to learn the history of perspective drawing and how it changed art.

My attempt on the exercise

Great, I remembered that I joined this course and I'm glad I came back again! I'll be able to really get into the classes soon. I'm doing a bunch of 3D-related stuff, but I do miss drawing. I love that 600-year perspective tale, Marshall! Can't wait to watch and learn from the rest, but that part is so coo. :D

:)

Thank you for your cheerfullness ! I was finally able to afford this course ! I am looking forward to it ! I live in the historical city of Ghent (Belgium ) And was brought up in an artistic environment ! Lucky to appreciate from close up all the flemish masters and Dutch of course ! Thank you for sharing your knowledge ! And putting this incredible course together ,which is not an easy task !!

I just took time tonight to find references that match my love of art history learning. While doing the exercise within the second video, I forged all of the temple photos I could find for my reference. Then I sat down, went through them all, and let my mind guide me on creating my own little scene of creating perspective lines in my mind alongside simple shapes. Behold, I am absolutely amazed at what I conjured up within drawing for half an hour tonight. Thanks for this fun lesson, Marshall. I would love some critique on how I can possibly improve by studying perspective points with my drawings. I am highly impressed with how I managed to draw this all up without touching environment drawings for so long. Thanks again, Marshall. I'll also attach the reference photos I used to create my temple drawing to understand better how I got the idea for my drawing.For my scene, I decided to create an inside of a temple, where the people gather around to worship their fallen emperor by his burial ground.

i love toshi yoshidas work ! thanks for showing him to me.

Played with the invitation to add some extra characters inside of Vredeman designs that I could like. Not that I want to sound snobbish, but if I am honest... most of his drawings don't look accurate in terms of scale and proportions. This is the one I thought I could keep it believable.

Hi everyone, I am mega excited to be taking Marshalls perspective course alongside you all. Even though I am busy with this semester of college with class and clubs. I always wanted to get better understanding perspective drawing to help me become a better artist with my enviormental drawings I love doing where I am not afraid to lose control of my hand per say. When this course got announce I did not hastate to pre order it asap couple months back. I am defenitly going to be taking my time to go along with each lesson through each weekend and I am excited to grow alongside you all.

I took my turn at playing around with drawing—just making things up and taking some time to mess around in a childlike way. I hope it’s okay to post it here!

Looking at this image by Hans Vredeman de Vries, I realized something new. The image is quite simple, with a single vanishing point where the lines converge in the distance. However, I hadn’t noticed before that the diagonal lines (marked in pink) also have their own vanishing point. I’m not sure of the official term, but I call it the 'vanishing point for diagonals.' I played around with the distance between the central vanishing point and the one for the diagonals and noticed that the ground becomes more compressed when the diagonal points are farther apart, and more elongated when they’re closer together. Really interesting! If anyone knows the official technical terms, please let me know.

Here's my go at using De Vries' work as a stage. I recently watched some videos of the metal band Slayer's comeback gig and that was on my mind. I couldn't put myself through the pain of making an entire crown so I kept a bouncer dragging a drunken guy out of the 'stage' area instead,

Two men dueling and multiple people in a scene! Hardest part was finding the reference that matched the perspective scene, I hope to learn how to turn and use any subject to fit any perspective configuration I want.
