The Art of Perspective: The Art of Perspective
The concept of perspective is often associated with confusing angles, fancy measurements and complicated theories. However, this comprehensive guide demystifies artistic perspective by presenting it as a matter of mimicking the way we see objects. Creating an illusion of depth in artwork is easier than color or design when explained correctly, and this book offers simple but powerful techniques for achieving a convincing illusion of depth and distance using a variety of mediums. Starting simple, the book covers the theory behind perspective and gradually introduces more challenging subjects such as stairways, curves and non-rectangular objects.
