Two-Point Perspective
In two point perspective the depth lines converg
e on one vanishing point (VP2) and the width lin
es converge on the
other vanishing point (VP1).
Copy this two-point Perspective sketch on your d
rawing paper.

Multiview Sketching
The arrows represent the line of sight associate
d
with each view.
Note how the views are oriented. Each view is a
djacent to the other as if they were unfolded f
rom a 3D shape.
