DRAWING AND PAINT

Trust Your Own Eyes When Painting And Drawing Perspectives

When you want to learn about perspectives you will find hundreds of art books to show you how...

For an artist they are a valuable guide to help an artist gain the skills of realistic looking drawings and paintings. Using horizon lines, vanishing points and view points you are helped to master your perspective awareness.

Better still, an artist gains the knowledge of recreating 3-dimensional physical form in 2 dimensions. With full knowledge of perspective drawing a good artist can create a painting that will look lifelike...

* Even if your picture has been created on a flat surface, it looks as if it has depth

* Mood and atmosphere is captured by your pencil drawing

* Your portrait painting looks as if the subject could leap from the canvas to shake your hand

Yet, for an art beginner, perspective drawing can seem to be a mystery.

Even top professional artists are guilty of relying upon perspective rules too much. The best of illustrators can find that the paintings they produce look artificial...

* Objects look distorted

* Extreme flatness is the overall effect

Recognizing your own unique artistic viewpoint is the key to getting the best from perspectives.

You see the world differently from the person standing next to you. Here are some of the reasons why...

* You could be taller or shorter

* Each person has different eyesight... You could be long-sighted while the person standing beside you could be short-sighted

* Everyone sees colors differently... You could have perfect color vision... Other people's color vision could be impaired

Your emotional response to the art subject also affects the resulting drawing and painting. If you have a passion for the subject your interest levels will be high. The finished picture will be better.

The great advantage of knowing that everyone sees the world around them differently is that you can justify your art. Whatever art critics might say about your painting and drawing, you will know your art is your own view of reality...

Enjoy your painting and drawing... "Your Art is your own perspective on life!"
