This easy-to-follow book—the first devoted entirely to clarifying the laws of perspective—remedies the situation.

By repeatedly stressing important points, Mr. Norling teaches you to make them second-nature. Moreover, his approach is so simple and direct that no matter how little raw talent or experience you have, you will soon be able to apply these techniques almost instinctively.Mastery of perspective is a basic skill every artist must have. This simple, nontechnical guide will enable you to master its essentials in a relatively short time. Clear and concise, this book is an essential addition to any artist's bookshelf.

Even covers Shade and Shadows!! This book is written from an artist's point of view, and is designed specifically to help drawings. Although it was written originally in 1939, the rules of perspective don't change, and it was updated in the late 60's. It covers vanishing points, moving vanishing points, and using the rules of perspective to make drawings of interiors. It covers ellipses, cylinders and cones. I bought 2 books on perspective and they pretty much said the same thing --- but the explanations were slightly different which helped my understanding. A great reference!!Wow! A Must Read for Every Aspiring Artist If you do any kind of drawing or painting, do yourself a favor and read this book at least once. Its author has the rare talent of being able to explain mysterious concepts very clearly with helpful illustrations and simple wording. He points out a lot of super basic principles which you never get taught elsewhere, and they will quite likely forever change the way you approach your projects. I'm not what you'd call a super talented artist, and I found this to be very encouraging and helpful. You really pick up that the author sincerely wants to make art a more enjoyable activity for you.I can't recommend enough for the beginner This has really helped me with perspective, I can't recommend enough for the beginner. Even the pro might benefit from a few of these quick tips.Even though it was written quite a while ago now, the writing it's self is clear and easy to understand.This would make a great gift for anyone who's interested in starting art, possibly even art students because from what I've seen with my friends, not all art classes teach perspective effectively.
