This book is excellent as it explains perspective in fine detail. I am following the instructions in some of the chapters and learning so much.

Amazon Customer Review

This book is incredible. I highly recommend it. Easy to read with detailed, clear and simple guidance. The accompanying drawings and sketches are plentiful and clearly show what is being discussed. The author covers areas such as single-point perspective, multi-point perspective, varying perspective and other essential instruction for novice artists like myself such as placing shadows and reflections and people perspective. I have quite a collection of drawing and painting books and this is one of the best. I love drawing buildings but they have always seemed a 'bit off' but I know by following the rules in this book I will be able to achieve the outcomes I want with my art work
