Product Description
Perspective is easy; yet surprisingly few artists know the simple rules that make it so. Now they can remedy that situation with this step-by-step book, the first devoted entirely to clarifying the laws of perspective. Using over 250 simple line drawings, the author leads the reader through every important concept, from horizon to vanishing point to the crucial relationship of eye level to perspective drawing. 256 illus.

5 out of 5 stars Very useful   January 1, 2009
It's great that this book is going to be reprinted again, since its first publication in 1939. It's a very useful book.

All the concepts of perspective are explained in plain and simple English. It teaches the basic foundation well, in a progressive manner where you build onto what you've learned earlier. Included are examples that emphasis the lesson point effectively. Once you get it, you get it forever.

For the low price, it's worth every cent.



5 out of 5 stars Perspective made easy   November 5, 2008
This book is just what I needed, it is easy to read and the information was simple and was of a good informative standard.For a person who was just starting to learn to draw it gave a lot of good information on this elusive subject.


4 out of 5 stars good basic instruction   August 12, 2008
A good read, reiterates the importance of perspective for the amateur sketcher..very easy to understand and incorporate the principles in my work.


5 out of 5 stars the title says it all   August 11, 2008
first off, I'm not an artist.
I wanted to learn perspective for drawing construction details.
I've had a book for years that I've tried to read at various times but could not make any sense out of it. It's called "perspective for artists".
This book came up as a recommended book for me and I decided to give perspective another shot.
I'd glad I did. This book is awesome. The material is presented simply and clearly. For the first time I feel I have a good, solid, beginner's understanding of perspective that I have been able to instantly use in my drawings.



5 out of 5 stars My review   June 19, 2008
Even though it does not appeat to the eye at first, the content is very, very good and teaches a lot.
I keep it close and refer to it every time I have some difficulty while drawing in perspective.
