ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

I would like to thank Andy Fish, NetGalley, and Walter Foster Publishing for affording me the opportunity to review Mastering Perspective: Techniques for Mastering One-, Two-, and Three-Point Perspective in Pencil.

I was so excited when I flipped through this book and discovered that every page had diagrams showing you how to tackle perspective. In fact, there were step-by-step instructions with clear examples of how to make sure you get your perspective right. This aspect of drawing had always been a challenge for me and I felt that I had finally found a book on perspective that I could understand! Definitely one I will have to get for myself.

One thing possibly not very clear was how to establish the vanishing point and eye level...but those things I had just learned from a great urban sketcher.

I highly recommend Success in art : Mastering perspective! Get your 1 point, 2 point and 3 point perspective right with the help of the author. Great for urban sketchers or just anyone who wants to draw their buildings, scenes and just about anything else accurately.

4 1/2 stars.

Thank you Netgalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Walter Foster for ARC. This is my honest review.

This is one of the best books I have read on mastering perspective. The step by step instructions are so clear and the method gives you plenty of time to digest and understand the process. The illustrations are excellent and straight to the point. It is perfect for beginners especially for artists who are teaching themselves. It is an excellent reference book to have on a shelf and keep referring to when needed.

I have been learning to draw for years and years and years. I am especially interested in urban sketching or other ways to draw scenes and places. The two hardest parts of drawing scenes, for me, are the people and getting the perspective right.

Perspective is exceptionally challenging, for me, so I was excited to see this very step by step and very logical way to see and use perspective. This book breaks the different types of perspective (single, two point, three point) into very clear step-by-step explanations. If you follow instructions meticulously (as the author recommends) it helps give a very clear way to understand perspective.

And then, as with all things, repetition is how we master it.

If you're struggling with perspective like I have been, this is an excellent place to start.

with gratitude to netgalley and Quarto Publishing Group for an advanced copy in return for an honest review.

This book offers many detailed step by step instructions on how to master one, two, and three point perspective. To start, there’s a chapter with the basic essentials you need. That’s followed by chapters of detailed instructions and then a follow up chapter of putting those techniques learned to work. This book is very well organized. I think anyone interested in art will find this book to be quite useful in learning and mastering perspective.
