Framed Perspective Vol. 1

Perspective is a discipline often set aside when it comes to general art study, though it is necessary to master in order to produce any piece of art that is realistic. Framed Perspective 1 equips artists with the technical knowledge needed to produce successful visual storytelling-related drawings: from understanding the basics, including line of sight and the horizon plane, to more sophisticated endeavors, such as producing shadows and reflections. As intimidating as perspective may seem, best-selling author and artist Marcos Mateu-Mestre delivers each lesson in an accessible and informative way that takes the mystery out of achieving successful scenes. The book includes extensive step-by-step practical explanations of how to build objects and environments of all sorts, taking that first sketch to a fully rendered artwork. Sure to be the most popular book in your art library, it will train you to see the world in a way that allows you to enjoy every curve and slope you see in the world and, more importantly, translate that vision into art with accuracy and a great sense of depth and proportion. Your perspective will never be the same
