What you'll learn
Learn the principles of perspective drawing with our drawing short courses in Sydney!
In this perspective drawing workshop, you will learn the process of how perspective works and how to translate it into your artwork.
Understanding and applying the principles of perspective drawing is a crucial skill in various creative disciplines, including sketching, painting, technical drawing such as architecture and drafting, and urban design. Perspective drawing involves representing objects. Through the use of linear perspective principles such as vanishing points, horizon lines, and converging lines, perspective drawing accurately portrays how objects would appear in real life from a specific viewpoint.
Join us for a one-day Perspective Drawing Workshop designed to enhance your ability to accurately depict buildings and objects within landscapes. Gain practical skills to ensure your drawings reflect realistic proportions based on the way you view them.
