Practice for Drawing in Perspective class
-
@mag Thank you!
Ah Creative Composition is on my to-do list too, looks very useful.@NickA Thanks very much for your feedback and especially for taking the time to do a draw-over! I know there is still a lot I have to learn, and posts like yours really help.. I could see that some of the boxes were getting distorted as you say. I will do more practice and hopefully will get there

I too love the washing machines! Nice work!

Love it! Here are some of my perspective exercises. It's a good idea to share!

@natiwata Thank you!
@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen These are fantastic, great work! Glad you are making the most of these exercises too…thanks for sharing
I’ve carried on with the rest of the exercises from the class:

@Will-Terry Thanks for a great class! I do still have a couple of questions though.. you see, I was enjoying drawing all these floating guitars, and I wanted to turn it into a surrealist landscape of guitars…but I got confused once I got further outwards. Am I allowed to draw the other side of the vanishing points? I can imagine it carrying on, so it must be possible, but I’m not sure what the rules are.
I’m sure I remember seeing on SVS somewhere Jake talking about perspective on a street scene/street corner, where you have both 3-point and 1-point going on…I tried to find it but the nearest similar example I can find was my piece here (I think I was subconsciously inspired to do a similar perspective after watching it):
So could I apply that sort of perspective to the guitars and carry on outwards? More broadly, when you’re constructing a scene are there any rules about how far you can draw outwards/around the points?

Those look really good! I am trying to stick with one class. I started perspective and listened to it but didn't do all the exercises. Now I am doing the Creative Composition class and doing that workbook. It has already been helpful to me in fixing work that I thought was a finished dummy (boy was I wrong
) It is looking much better.Sorry these photos aren't that good.
Here are some photos of the pages I've done so far-it would be nice to know if I'm "getting it" with the assignments. I kind of hesitate to show them but, I should really ask for input so I can progress.

Good for you for putting in the time, thanks for sharing

@Dulcie Haha! This washing machine idea was great! Indeed, we can get inspiration from everything! You´re doing really great and I´m seeing your progress.
I did @Will-Terry perspective class during this week too, here are some of my studies. I almost fried my brain thinking about it

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Good for you for keeping on with those exercises, they look great! Creative Composition is one class I haven't done yet (it's on my list!) but I've seen a fair few of the exercise sheets posted and it looks like you're going the right way with them
@kamiqueiroz Thank you! Yes it's the type of class that fries your brain but worth it...Your sketches look great, thanks for sharing!

@Dulcie Hi Dulcie - I just saw all the work you've been doing. I've been trying to catch up after being sick for 3 days, preparing for and presenting at the Utah/Idaho SCBWI Today...It looks like you're doing great!

@Dulcie Thanks. I appreciate your encouraging words
I am impressed with your accomplishments in illustration. I'll keep pushing forward, can't go backwards if your going forward
