Introduction
Description
A solid understanding of Perspective gives the artist the means to draw what they see both accurately and believably. This series on the Fundamentals of Perspective will provide artists with the understanding of not only the concepts but also put them into practice as Illustration master Gary Meyer guides you through each exercise. In this lecture titled Fundamentals of Perspective 1: One-Point Principles and Concepts, the basic concepts of one-point perspective will be covered. This lecture primarily focuses on the fundamental understanding of the principles, terminology, and the concept of scale in perspective. Gary will demonstrate through various exercises, how to not only set up an illustration in perspective, but also how to draw objects to scale using methods to transfer scale from one object to another in correct perspective.
