A MORE ENJOYABLE WAY TO SKETCH IN PERSPECTIVE
If I asked you to accurately sketch a bustling cityscape in your sketchbook, could you do it?
Perspective is the Achilles’ heel for many designers and artists. Trying to untangle the distorted proportions and skewed lines can be mystifying.
I’ve learned after 50 years of sketching that the real problem is not in the complexity of the world around us, but in how we think as we try to solve this puzzle in our sketchbooks.
Join me as I share a better and more fun way to sketch in perspective from life.
Together we will learn:
- A new method of seeing and thinking that will transform how you sketch
- How to direct your own mind to shift from one hemisphere of the brain to the other, back and forth as you sketch, and why this is the key to success
- How to use this knowledge to sketch authentic scenes from observation
Although this class is not a magic bullet (practice is still a must), you will understand and enjoy perspective like never before, and create more convincing and satisfying sketches.
Throughout, we are going to have a lot of fun.
All skill levels are welcome.
