- Stephen reveals the personal technique he developed for his own drawing to avoid making this most common perspective mistake. This video starts with analysing a drawing to see the mistake clearly, and it is then redrawn highlight the difference correct perspective makes. Stay for the end when Stephen's personal method of ensuring correct perspective is revealed. You may never have a problem with this again.
Been getting into urban sketching lately(something I’ve been putting off for a while because of my abysmal sense of proportion), and I’ve been having a lot of trouble trying to get all the buildings to align after I finish drawing each part because I already make the lines either too vertical or too horizontal
Never occurred to me that I should’ve just drawn a guide and use that as a starting point
This helped a lot, thank you
Always encouraging to hear the videos have helped. Thanks for letting me know. Please tell your friends if you think they’d find them helpful as well. 😀
Extremely helpful Stephen, thanks!
Great to hear Suzann😀
Excellent thank you
You are very welcome😀
Thankyou very much for making such a nice video on Perspective drawing mistakes and how to to correct it.
My pleasure Gopal. Hope it has really helped your drawing. 😀
@@stephentraversart Certainly. your video makes difference between knowing the mistake and understanding it.
Wonderful 😀
You know that moment when, after 100 people have explained a concept to you, and then out of the blue that one person explains it in the exact right way for your brain to grasp it.
Yes, just had that moment.
That’s great! And you’ve given me a moment of intense satisfaction as a teacher, so thank you as well. I hope there are many more aha moments ahead for you. 😀
This video is a GEM! You´ve made so many things click for me in just a few minutes!
That’s great. Please help me out and tell your friends as well 😀
This vid comes in correct time i tried for many days to do drawing many columns but i always failed 🌝 i will try this technique sir 🙏
So glad to hear this Shawgi. All the best with it. 😀
I had the first mistake happen to me just today lol. I had decided to sketch out a city scene and when I put a perspective grid over the top of my image to check it I had my roof and overhangs and windows at different angles lol!
Once we can see our mistakes, it’s not nearly as hard to correct them. Keep at it, it will all fall into place soon. 😀
I’ve been sketching the building affected by the Turkey earthquake. Do you have any classes on post-earthquake sketching?
I’m afraid I haven’t. Such a sad subject 😀
the thing i usually get wrong just because i never think about it is the distance between same size objects going towards a vanishing point, like windows, i always measure them equal distance when i should make them thinner and smaller distance between them the further away they get.
This is an easy error to fall into Robin. My videos on foreshortening are the ones which should help you most with this topic. I’ve just posted a video to celebrate my first million views on TH-cam with my considered top three tips from all the advice/ teaching that I’ve given in over 470 videos. Have a look if you’re interested. 😀
@@stephentraversart i have been, it's been great, i had a special moment with the videos explaining detail and how you don't have to be super accurate across the whole page when details become too much to manage, just giving the illusion of detail is enough.
it's been probably the biggest roadblock for me to even start drawing environments and architecture, i could draw a house but i always felt like when it came to cityscapes that it became just overwhelming, likewise with nature scenes.
it has also helped me seeing things differently reminding me what drawing and painting really is, i tend to draw everything a bit too literally, if i can see it i should represent it as i see it, but that's not really what i should be doing, and that detail explanation reminded me of what i should be aiming for and how i should approach my drawings and paintings.
so for that i greatly appreciate your explanations, also congratulations on your million views, here's to many more 🙂
@@bobxbaker Sounds like the road block has been removed. Time to accelerate down the open road.😀
Fantastic video, thank you 🙏
Really appreciate your telling me. Thanks 😀
Much appreciated ! Thank you
You're welcome!😀
Your videos helped me so much to understand perspective better, which is something I've always struggled with in my drawings, so thank you! 🙏 Maybe its a dumb question, but does the principles for perspective work the same way no matter what you draw? Say if I wanna draw an animal for example. Or is there something more you have to take into consideration then?
Thanks Amanda. Yes, perspective applies to everything within view. It’s just that it’s more obvious with buildings if it’s not drawn correctly than most things. Think of the way a person looks differently if we’re looking down at then rather than straight on. That’s the perspective changing the form of the person according to the viewing position. Just as with buildings. Does this make sense?😀
@@stephentraversart Makes sense, thank you! Next painting I do, I'm going to try something a bit more challenging perspective-wise with everything I learned from your videos 😄 Hope you're having a great day!
That’s so good. 😀
😳😲 Awesome Sir..💌
That’s very kind Angad. Thanks. 😀
I guess once you get perspective mastered, then you can play with Escher ideas.
You can disappear in his staircases 😀
There are multiple vanishing points depending on the angle of surface.
Yes😀
Nice 😌👍 good luck 😀
Thank you. Appreciate that. 😀
You have so much videos but if you can organise a video and then list videos one should watch in sequence to understand perspective
I have a perspective playlist of 22 videos which is like a course. Why not have a look at it?
