Introduction to Drawing in Perspective

Want to learn how to draw in perspective?

This class is perfect for beginning artists and illustrators, with easy to pick up tips for creating dynamic sketches that harness the power of perspective. 

I'll cover:

• Vanishing points and horizon lines

Perspective is an integral part of any artist’s tool kit and the ability to draw scenes from unique vantage points is key to creating great art. 

I’m an illustrator and artist who works with ink to create drawings that make you feel like you’re “there”: right in the drawing, looking out at majestic scenes and fantastical landscapes. And perspective is the building block all my drawings spring from. 

So sit down with your pencil and paper (no fancy equipment needed) and let’s get sketching!
