Draw a room from life

Put it all together: shapes, perspective, measuring and values, in a real place.

  1. 1Pick a corner of a café, a park bench or your kitchen.
  2. 2Find the horizon and your vanishing points first.
  3. 3Block in the big shapes lightly, then measure the important ones.
  4. 4Finish by squinting and adding the darkest darks.
