The Basic Perspective course is now available.

I believe I have honed my video editing skills a bit more with the release of my recorded online course for Basic Perspective.

In this foundational course, I walk students through the basic concepts of perspective, discussing the importance of the horizon line, vanishing points, and perspective lines. Then how we use them in one-point and two-point perspectives. The last exercise in this course is fun because we create a street scene without using a reference completely using a two-point perspective.

We may not need to use perspective as dramatically as we do in the exercise for this course, but we need to be aware of perspective issues in our drawings and paintings. This course gives you the ability to spot potential problems in your work.

The recorded version allows learning at your own pace, starting and stopping the video as needed, and you can ask a question in the comment section of the lesson that I will answer.

Learn more by visiting the Basic Perspective course.

Dam Painting update

Image
Work in progress... A quick update on the "Dam Painting."  I have finished drawing in the under drawing and believe that it is now ready to have some color added to it! Although I more than likely will not do that for a couple of more weeks, after school starts back in so that I can have larger blocks of time to paint. Until then you can see the finished under drawing below and I will get to work on the next under drawing for another painting, this one is of a beautiful roof line from Charleston , South Carolina.
