Hi Tom here, in this drawing the first step is to draw a vertical line on the
left hand side, this will be the edge of a building,
next, we can draw a mark for our vanishing point on the right of this vertical line,
in one point perspective we have one way to show a 3d quality in a drawing,
the sense of depth,
so by drawing a grid in one-point perspective on the left
we have created some sense of an illusion of depth within the drawing,
next up, we can draw the front of a tall building,
this building is not showing any perspective
as we can't see the side of the building, we're looking straight on at it,
so all the vertical lines of this building will stay vertical and parallel
to each other and parallel to the edge of the paper
as will all the horizontal lines they will all little stay horizontal, as they're not
going away from us viewer and therefore, because they're not going away from us,
we don't need to draw them in perspective going to the one vanishing point,
once you have the basic shape of the building, it might be a good idea to put
in some of the details as you go along, if you're using a pen,
for this drawing you could use a pen or a pencil doesn't really matter,
later on in the drawing I will use some marker pens to put some but tone in,
but you could just use a pencil for the tone,
so in this drawing we can use our vanishing point for all of the sides of
the buildings that are going towards that direction, away from us, we can also
use the vanishing point for the bridges and roads in this view of Chicago...
