HELP! Where's the perspective in this painting?

ArtistErin

@Norman-Morana Wow Norman... thank you for this. I really appreciate the time you took here. I will for sure make the adjustments! You have helped me establish a set point that will help me in so many ways to problem solve what my eye knew wasn't right. Also knowing how you set up this grid makes me more resolved to get these things planned better in the thumbnailing phase in future compositions, because I could have saved myself alot of time in the painting stage had I applied this important fundamental...

Again, a million thanks. For sure you know what you are doing and could absolutely teach this!!!

@Norman-Morana this review is very clear and easy to understand. Great job Norman!

@davidhohn awe thanks! That means a lot

@Adam-Thornton-0 You can also establish the perspective without using straight lines or vanishing points by using foreshortening alone. Our brains can remarkably interpret the characteristics of arcs and circles and derive a perspective context. Here is an image I created that uses six circles to establish the planes of a cube.

There is an axonometric calculator that allows you to enter the baseline angles of the front two vertical planes and returns the foreshortening scales and ellipse angles. http://tamivox.org/redbear/axono/index.html

@thomas-young Wow! That's amazing! I love that so much. Would make a great t-shirt print.

@Adam-Thornton-0 If you would like the vector art let me know and I can email it to you.
