Hi, Tom here with this week's Circle Line Art School drawing challenge,
in this drawing I'll show you one way to draw a complex
modern house using one point perspective, the first step is to draw a horizon line
slightly lower than the middle height of your page, you could use a ruler if
you want to, it doesn't matter, next, as this is one point perspective, we
need a vanishing point in the center of this
horizon line, in this drawing all receding parallel lines
will look like they converge at this single vanishing point,
as we're using one point perspective, now draw three sides of a rectangle
around the vanishing point
and then add two lines at the top to make a point,
this shape is not in perspective as we're looking straight at it,
there aren't any lines that are receding,
next, using the vanishing point in the center of your drawing,
draw two lines coming forward towards us, from the baseline of the rectangle all
the way to the baseline of your drawing, to the bottom of your
page, next draw a thin horizontal rectangle between the two
receding lines, this will be the upright for a
step in the foreground,
now we can use the vanishing point to draw two more receding lines
going through the bottom corners of this thin horizontal step,
next we can draw another thin rectangle for the next upright of the steps that
we're drawing in the foreground of this image
and then using the vanishing point again, we can draw the diagonals at the bottom
right and the bottom left, now we can erase the vanishing point in
the middle a little bit, so it's not quite so strong,
next we can draw a horizontal line below the halfway point of the
central rectangle and then another horizontal line
a little bit above it, now using our vanishing point we can draw a
guideline to each of the corners of the new
rectangle that we've created,
and now we can carefully join up, using four more lines,
a new rectangle, which is touching each of the receding lines to the
vanishing point, so we have sort of a rectangle within a
rectangle, if we darken the receding lines a little bit,
then we have this sort of shoebox shape
in the center of our drawing, a shape where the lines are receding,
next, using the two uprights at the back of the shoebox
we can continue them higher up and then using the corners of the main rectangle
we can draw two more receding lines going to the vanishing point
and then join those up again with another horizontal line
and then we could just make these lines a little bit darker
to see where we're going, so we're looking
into a structure, if you would like to see a full narrated version of this
