Its your favorite dog

Thanks for the compliments!!

I know it’s not an easy, hard-and-fast fix, but just practicing and pumping out drawings even if they aren’t perfect is a really good way to develop your skill. Spend time trying to get each one as accurate as you can, but things like perspective come from presenting yourself with lots of different scenarios and objects, rather than perfecting it in one specific composition.

It’s different for every artist, and even then, every piece, but perspective doesn’t need to be perfect, it really just needs to be good enough. 

ex.) I think I remember starting the sketch of this by making a blank wall, then adding the shelves, the couch, and then all the little details. Unless it’s brand new architecture, things are very rarely in a natural 90 degree angle! so it’s ok if it shifts a little, as long as it overall looks believable.

Instead of drawing a line from one edge of your object to a vanishing point for every object in your piece, try just establishing a horizon line and a general vanishing area. Instead of relying on the lines and guides, try just guessing.

perspective is a tool not a rule!!!

Here’s an example for how you can use it
