Perspective Drawing Handbook

This handy guide provides numerous insights and shortcuts to drawing and sketching effectively.

Describing mandatory skills for beginning and advanced students, the text covers such subjects as diminution, foreshortening, convergence, shade and shadow, and other visual principles of perspective drawing.

Accompanying a concise and thoughtfully written text are more than 150 simply drawn illustrations that depict a sense of space and depth, demonstrate vanishing points and eye level, and explain such concepts as appearance versus reality; perspective distortion; determining heights, depths, and widths; and the use of circles, cylinders, and cones.

Artists, architects, designers, and engineers will find this book invaluable in creating works with convincing perspective.
