Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive guide to linear perspective, an art form that facilitates the representation of objects on a two-dimensional surface in a way that accurately reflects how the human eye perceives them in three-dimensional space. The author begins by establishing foundational principles and definitions, providing a solid base for understanding the subsequent, more complex concepts presented in the book. The book progressively builds upon this foundation by offering practical guidance on drawing various objects in perspective, including squares, buildings, and cubes. The author's step-by-step approach and detailed explanations make it easy for readers to follow along, experimenting with the techniques and applying them to their own drawings. Furthermore, the inclusion of diagrams and visual aids greatly enhances the learning experience, making complex concepts more accessible. The book not only focuses on the practical applications of linear perspective but also delves into the underlying theory and principles. The author explores the relationship between different planes, such as the ground plane and picture plane, and their impact on the representation of objects in perspective. This theoretical knowledge enables readers to develop a deeper understanding of the subject, empowering them to make informed decisions while creating their own drawings. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of linear perspective, catering to both beginners seeking a solid grounding in the subject and experienced artists looking to refine their techniques.
