First Perspective Exercise, Complete

Here is the completed example drawing for our first lesson in perspective drawing. (Yes, I folded it to get the shapes in the right spots.)


We want to give the illusion that the shapes are going into the distance, not just a bunch of different sized shapes sitting next to each other.

I neglected to mention that as objects are farther away, in addition to appearing smaller, they also seem to be closer together. This is quite noticeable while looking at telephone poles going into the distance.

There is quite a bit more about perspective to learn, but this is a good start.
