Hi, Tom here, in this week's Circle Line Art School drawing challenge
I'll show you one easy way to draw a house using two-point perspective,
tw point perspective is when you have two vanishing points in one drawing,
the first step is to draw a horizon line across the middle of your page,
and now we can put a vanishing point at each end of this horizon line,
all receding parallel lines will look like they meet at one of the vanishing points,
next draw a vertical line crossing the horizon line, this vertical line is the
nearest corner of the house,
now draw two receding lines to the left vanishing point,
and two more receding lines to the right vanishing point,
from the top and the base of the vertical line,
next draw a new vertical line on the left and another new vertical line on the right,
now we have the outside walls of a house in two point perspective,
next, draw a line to the left and the right vanishing points, a bit lower than the top of the walls
of the house that we already have, this is a guideline to show where the
top of the door and windows can be, next draw two vertical lines for a door on the left,
and two more vertical lines for a window next to the door, to find the base of
this window, which is receding from us, draw another line to the left vanishing
point, a guideline, now we can draw some windows on the right side wall, using a
base line to the right vanishing point for the top and the base of all of the windows,
the vertical lines of each window needs to stay vertical and
parallel to all the other vertical lines in the drawing,
next draw a vertical guideline line above the center of the left-hand
side of the house, from this guideline, from the top of this guideline, draw two
more lines to the top corners of the house on the left to create a triangle for the roof,
now from the top point of the triangle draw a line to the right vanishing point,
for the top line of the roof, next we can use the angle of the front of the roof
on the right and copy this angle again for the back of the roof of the angle on
the right, now we have a very basic house in
two-point perspective, we're using two-point perspective to make the house
look three-dimensional on a two-dimensional piece of paper...
