Urban Sketching for Beginners 1 & 2 – Point Perspective by Julia Henze

Point One
Do you love urban sketching, as I do, but you struggle with perspective? Then this class is for you! This is the first part of a series about perspective. In this class we will focus on the fundamentals of the one-point perspective in urban sketching.

This is a beginners class, so my intention is not to show you one method to draw one particular street, but I want you to understand how to draw your own illustration with one-point perspective in different circumstances. I know that for many of you it’s a quite tough stuff but I’ll try to make it as clear as possible by explaining every detail and by showing different examples. And, of course, we will draw a nice one-point perspective at the end.

Enjoy the class!

Point Two
This is the second, and the last, part of a series about perspective. In this class, we’ll go over two-point perspective in urban sketching.

We will go through:

– different types of perspective;

– basic perspective terms and how to recognize two-point perspective;

– how to understand two-point perspective (there you can find some ideas for practicing at the end);

– and how to draw it in different circumstances (with tips, tricks and shadowing matters).

Of course, there will be a speed drawing video at the end where I’ll show you how I make a two-point perspective sketch in three steps.
