Most photos you find online have been cropped, which means the vanishing point isn't where you expect it to be. This creates a challenge: how do you draw accurately when the perspective point is offset?
Drawing Tutorials
So far we've looked at drawing single objects - cars, buildings, individual forms. But what happens when you need to combine multiple objects in one scene? This is where a lot of students start to struggle.

tudents keep asking about two-point perspective, so let me show you how it actually works - and why I think there's a better way for real artwork. The technical rules are mathematically correct, but in practice you need something more practical than vanishing points three feet off your paper.

Ready to test your building drawing foundation? This 2-minute challenge applies the same systematic approach that worked for cars to architectural subjects.
Drawing Tutorials
Buildings follow the same systematic approach as cars - find the closest corner, establish basic angles, build the foundation box. Tracking lines become even more obvious with architecture. From simple houses to complex buildings, master the foundation method that works for any structure.
