I’ve been trying to learn perspective for ages but this is the only video that actually helped me understand how to apply it! Thank you so much!!
That’s great to hear Katy. Thanks for the encouragement. 😀
It’s crazy you don’t see how steep the angle is until you draw it. You think "oh that’s not gonna be enough space" but then it all comes together.
Yes. We need to learn how to observe more carefully. Glad it’s worked for you. 😀
You took the words right outta my mouth!! As a beginner I totally agree with this! I’m really struggling to draw buildings or really anything from life…Never thought that drawing what I can see would be so challenging. Judging angles is tricky for me. Every time I think it’s a certain angle when I draw it it turns out different than reality and needs multiple redrawing…Hoping observation skills will improve overtime
Good ol' foreshortening lol.
"I can now more carefully draw my actual drawing."
*proceeds to recreate the big bang on paper*
Haha. I think this is my favourite comment ever! I appreciate your wit as well as your kindness! 😀
You’re so right, a detail or two off, no one notices but if the perspective is off ya’ can’t not notice that. It’s like a neon sign. And it screams “amateur” or “beginner”.
Love your videos 🤓
Thanks. Yep, it sooo true. 😀
As someone being intimdated by perspective, this is such an easy to follow video! It's made me motivated to go outside and sketch some buildings!
Sounds like a success Mish. Congratulations 👏
I’m trying to learn perspective right now, and I gotta say this is really helpful. I always put vanishing points and horizon line on my drawings, and I find that a lot of the time they end up looking warped because they stretch so much to try and meet them in the small confines of the page
I have really been having a block when it comes to perspective, but when you finally said we shouldn’t expect the vanishing points or even the horizon line to be visible in the drawing it finally made sense. I realized I need to develop my ability to visualize them even when they are way off the page
Too many of these videos are too simplistic. Glad to have helped. 😀
Last drawing, no construction lines, impressive. Great vid, for people sick of boxes in perspective.
Thanks John. Always great to hear my vids have been helpful 😀
What a great video! I was starting to get bored by the same explanations over and over again, but this one opened my eyes quite well. Thank you for teaching me something I didn’t know yet :)
Thanks Kuro. That’s encouraging to hear. I have two perspective playlists with my channel, one with over 40 videos, the other where I’ve chosen ten and arranged them in an order to make them a bit like a course, if you’re interested. All the best. 😀
Perspective is not that hard when I think about it, but when it comes to actually draw something, my lines are all over the place )) In your video I've got exactly the explanation I was looking for. Thank you!
I never tire of hearing this. Thanks Alex for sharing 😀
I am finding it much more useful to see this applied in context of a large building.
I know that the small shapes are important practice, but seeing those shapes as representation of the larger, completed work is cementing it in my brain. Thank you for this!
Glad it was helpful for you Stetson. All the best with your drawing. 😀
Very Very interesting about the Video.

Hell yeah. Ingenious way to learn perspective that builds muscle memory and confidence with sketching. A quick and easy 'think, see, and apply' way to teach it that's approachable! Don't worry about the detail, just try and fail. Love it.
Sometimes we can make things harder than they are. Good teaching I've always thought is making something so obvious you wonder why you are learning it at all!
I used to draw comics as a kid and loved it, but I eventually stopped out of frustration because I couldn't understand how to apply perspective. As a grown-up, I've found ways to draw using Google Maps in a very similar way to what you are showing in this video. Your method is really didatic, practical and encouraging, and I hope I can continue to improve my drawing skills!
Hey, that's a great tip! I'm going to try it next time!
i guess the most basic, fundamental building blocks of these drawings really are a lot more important than they seem. it's so interesting, because when you look at Mr. Travers' drawings, the first thing that meets your eye is how well and how pleasantly th drawing matches the real thing. and i think for some reason the part of our brains responsible for higher order thinking erroneously misattributes this to things like details and ornamentation. however, what we're really doing is subconsciously being impressed by the resemblance between the similarities in perspective between the drawing and the real thing.
what a brilliant method to boil perspective down into not much more than the pure angles of edges as they appear to us. thank you Mr Travers for yet another gem in drawing instruction ! :)
So it's much more like training our eyes to catch the silhouette and once you do it after some time you will get it instinctively. So the perspective principles are much more needed for when you need to construct from nothing or be extremely precise.
So the overall stuff u taught is how to observe a building
Not necessarily the silhouette, but the angle of the perspective lines, particularly the two extremes - depending on the roof shape these may not be the silhouette. Yes, the principles are much more necessary when drawing from imagination. 😀
Honestly if you just push through and get mileage I don't think it's hard to get the basics down at an intuitive level. The issue is that people try to do it perfectly and line everything up rather than learning to feel it out and make a lot of mistakes. Most of my hinderance in art is usually just trouble doing things I'm not good at.
I think an unrecognised problem is we watch a video and assume it’s told me what I need to know to apply it. In fact most real life scenes do not fit directly for artists into the perspective theoretical construct. We need more info we don’t realise the videos haven’t given us think but we are the problem. I have a few videos on this. All the best with your drawing Cory. 😀
For me it's an only possible choice, because I can't get it right by feeling. I have no vision, I can't capture it, so all perspective for me is just plain struggle. Hope for a sudden breakthrough after hours of drawing, watching videos and studying the object.
OMG! Thank you so much because no one else in their video will tell this and make it look difficult. I didn't know we could use just a pen and know how much exactly to make the slope same.
Glad to have helped. 😀
I always loved to draw grand architecture but it was always so frustrating for me because i didnt use perspective! This video helped me realize that that is what i have been doing wrong for all those frustrating drawings. so thank you!
Glad it was helpful! All the best with future architecture 😀
I know perspective is a real thing but im still so shocked when I incorporate it in my art and it actually looks good lol. This was so helpful, thank you for making the video!
I always love to be practical. Have fun using g it. 😀
This is so useful, thank you! I feel like I've been stuck in "draw the rest of the owl" territory with perspective, I think with this I can put together a study plan for myself.
You can do it! And have fun as well!
I'm glad I found this video! It made perspective drawing less daunting to for me! Thank you for the clear and quick explanation! 😊
I always get encouraged to hear this Maggie. Thanks for letting me know. 😀
Thank you for these uploads. I know perspective in and out. My learning process has been difficult because there so many different techniques and I was always looking for the best one. Some ppl make it hard to understand
Some people learn well from a technical approach, but it’s not the only way to understand perspective. I have a perspective playlist on my channel where many of my perspective videos are put together, and there is a wide range there of approaches.
Absolutely great mate. Your videos are very, very helpful. Thank you ☺️✍️🏛️
Glad you like them! I hope you tell your friends for me.
Your channel is very cool and helpful. You make perspective look as easy as biting into a cake. Thank you!
Haha. That’s great to hear. Thanks 😀
IT MADE SO MUCH SENSE IN THE THIRD PICTURE
Excellent 👏👏👏
This is really helpful!! I struggled to find any videos showing how to actually APPLY that basic knowledge of how perspective works! :)
That’s great to hear. Have fun using g it in your drawing 😀
The intro is so real 😭
It’s what I want to happen. 😀
Thank u sm , im a beginner drawing and I love your lesson sm I have known the perspective for a long time but never understand how to use it but how i think im ! and all bc of u , I’ll practice more thanks sm !! ❤ ( and if I have wrong grammar im sorry im not good at English)
Wonderful. Always glad to hear this. Have fun practicing 😀
I loved the way you explained perspective, yes I find using the angles of the photo is better than trying to find the vanishing point. That really confuses me. Thank you so much. I love drawing buildings and people.:)
I really enjoy drawing them too. And I’m glad my videos have helped. All the best. 😀
Thank you for showing how to apply it and train on it!
You are so welcome!😀
This is so useful. All of the perspective videos I have watched have not really helped me. Your explanation makes a lot of sense. I will re watch your videos and practice.
That’s great to hear Lorraine. I’ve just posted a new video on perspective if you’re interested. 😀
@@stephentraversart I am.
Glad to see this video tutorial. I've been so frustrated trying to understand how to work perspective through my sketches. Lines do confuse me most of the time. This video somehow enlightens me. Might wanna try holding' up that pen again and apply those techniques. Thank you so much!❤
Encouraging to hear. Thanks Arlene😀
Awesome video! this was really helpful because the question you addressed was the exact one I had (of how exactly do we draw the bigger, more detailed and complex architecture and things in perspective) most videos don't talk about it, Thank you!
It’s always great to hear the video was helpful. Thanks. And all the best putting it into practice. 😀
@@stephentraversart thank you!
Best video on internet for perspective drawing😮
Great to hear you think so. Thanks. 😀
this was really helpful!! ive always found perspective hard to understand but you made it so easy
Such a great comment to hear. Thank you Plum 😃
Great lesson, I think using photos like this is extremely helpful.thank you.
Great to hear. Working from life is always helpful 😀
This helped so much more by using the pen angles, thank you
Yes, it’s a great tip. Have fun with it. 😀
Oh! I didn't know you teaching how to drawing perspective ! Yes!!! This is what i really need
Glad you found out. I have 2 playlists on it if you want to look them up. 😀
You are so patient ❤
Remember, videos are edited!😆 Thank you. 😀
increíble video it just opened a new world of possibilities
How great to hear. Enjoy it. 😀
Really great vid. I usually start off with a few lines. Sometimes the obvious things aren’t obvious til we are shown a streamlined way lol. Thanks!
Glad it’s been helpful. All the best. 😀
Love these videos! They are really helping me improve my sketches. Thanks so much!
Thanks Jessica. It’s always encouraging to hear this. 😀
So beautiful 😍❤️
Thank you!! 😊
🌷🇧🇷Sensacional sua orientação para uma iniciante como eu…Assisti seu vídeo sobre aprender depois dos 50…Gratidão por dividir sua experiência e sua sabedoria!
just noticed you uses the same pen i do, now I don't have worry about my pen not being enough for the art i wanna do 🤣
Haha. Congratulations 👏😀
This pen tip is life saver.
Such a good choice for a practice and a great video, thank you so much going to start practicing this way as I can
Great to hear, music to a teacher’s ear 😀
Hi Stephen, I've just found your channel, it's amazing, as well as the way you teach. I don't know how many videos I watched in a row so far 😅 they're all so great. Thank you very much for kindly sharing your knowledge. ☺️
Cris, that’s great to hear and very generous of you to say. Thank you for the encouragement. It’s very helpful for me. 😀
Fantastic video! Great teacher! Thank you for you help!
Thanks Harrison, my pleasure. 😀
The starting line of the video.😅 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORTS 🙏
My pleasure. Glad it was helpful. 😀
Well explained
Thanks😀
Very helpful. Thanks grandpa ❤️👍 love from India ❤️
My pleasure. Now time for my nap. 😉
You’re the best of the best.
Now that’s going a bit far, but I greatly appreciate your generosity! 😀
Your a good teacher. You make it look so easy. Then I try and well let's just say it doesn't look like yours.
Thanks Jeremy. Keep at it. My money’s on yours looking better than mine one day. 😀
@@stephentraversart thanks. Have a good night, or day. It's night here Minnesota,.
@@stephentraversart I'll keep watching your videos and practice as much as I can and I hope to be able to draw as easy as you make it look. Thanks for the great videos.
Thank you
My pleasure 😀
this video was incredibly helpful thank you so much
Appreciate your telling me. Thanks 😀
wow, what an amazing explanation thank you sir !
Glad it was helpful 😀
This is very great and helpful turotial video ❤
Great to hear. Thanks 😀
thanks a lot
My pleasure 😀
On the last drawing of the cathedral you build the sketch right away with lots of detail. Is that after you drew some preliminary sketches so you're comfortable with the decisions you're taking? Amazing work
this really helps me a lot, thank you
My pleasure 😀
Thank you Stephen. Excellent and informative, as always!
Glad it so so helpful Greg. Have fun putting it into practice with your drawing. 😀
Thanks a lot this gonna help me for my drawings ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That’s what I love to hear. Thanks 😊
thank you for this!
This was the vid that I needed!
And this is a great comment to read. Thanks 😀
Sir, you have quite literally saved my ass
Well, first time I’ve been told that today!😆😆😆 Thank you.
@@stephentraversart 😂I really wanna be an architect, so these little demonstrations on how to draw architecture and find the right VP helps me a lot. So thank you!
Great video,thank you!😍🙏
Thanks Zara. 😀
Thank you sir this is a very good video about perspective
I really like you this is the first time that I see you but still 🎉
Thanks. Welcome aboard my channel 😀
@@stephentraversart thanks it's really works!!!!
Thanks for teaching me about а general understanding of Perspective! I really needed a way to easily draw this environment with shapes. +Subs! ^ ^
That’s great and my pleasure. Welcome aboard my channel. I have a few perspective playlists if you’re interested. All the best with your drawing. 😀
Thank you sir..♥️
My pleasure 😀
Ur explanation is lot easy to understand tnq for making this video ❣
I always love to hear this. Thanks for telling me 😀
@@stephentraversart tnq fr replying😇
Thank you.
You're welcome!😀
Love your videos, particularly the video for learning vs. copying. What an eye opener!!! I was ready to quit. Thank you for your wisdom!!!
Thanks. Yes, it’s such a crucial point so little appreciated, I suspect. 😀
Thanks for sharing
My pleasure😀
Do you have any suggestions on drawing scale/proportions correctly? I have a habit of drawing to big. Thank you, I'm so happy I came across your lessons, such a great help!
Yes, quite a few. If you look through my videos I have a few on just that topic. And most of the videos where I draw a complete picture also touch on that in part. Glad you like my videos. Thanks. 😀
thanks so much sir
My pleasure 😀
Okay what's a perspective. I didn't watched the video fully so I don't know a lot but the between was interesting to watch cause I learned some new things
I think the video will explain better than I can in a comment 😀
I use my pen to get the angle sometimes too. Or the straight edge of a scrap of paper.
It’s also a good way of checking how accurate our observation skills are. 😀
.
Thank you
My pleasure 😀
Really awesome video
Thank you for the video. This is a pretty fun way to learn=)
That’s great. Fun is always best. 😀
Thanks I got a sigil for my drawing
Great 👍
im trying to learn architecture for my girlfriend, i want to be with her for some time. i wish i could do it!
Lol you beta male
How sweet 😭👏👏👏

Great video!!!! 💖
That’s great to hear Leandro
Hi! Im studying perspective and all that, but i might be getting bottlenecked because i just dont know how to continue!
I'm halfway through the video and I see him using references, something i can view but not print.
Is there an option for a alternative? Should i learn to just observe from a screen and put it into the paper?
You could screenshot and then print off a copy.
@@stephentraversart well, that is certainly a problem. I have no abilities or access to printers at my area. I could view references though, but I'm not confident it's enough
thank u for ur time
My pleasure. Hope you find the exercise helpful. 😀
Great video! DD
Thanks Dennis😀
Wow very helpful❤😁
Im sorry, I don’t quite understand. Is this a photo reference in my video?
@@stephentraversart My apologies it was a reference photo I found on the internet and was trying to draw from. I figured it out, it had multiple vanishing points I didn't know that was possible but I did some research on it.
I’m glad. 😀
Good choice of pen :)
They have a great flow of ink. I use them for diagrams and such because they show up really clearly on the video. I tend not to use them in drawing scenes as the ink flows so well it tends not to be quite dry when I move my hand over it. (I draw quite quickly). And I love the way they feel when you use them. 😀
Hi, Stephen, this is a great ! I love your method to draw such building with the help of a photo. Also using a pen to measure the angle of the building to fit the perspective is a very convenient way to draw . I just have a question , suppose you are facing the real building , you draw it on spot, can we still use this method? Or we have to change the method ? Thanks !
Thanks. I still use a pen on location to measure angles. I hold it up in front of the object and align it with the angle of the object and then bring it straight down onto the paper. Sounds dodgy but is surprisingly accurate. Give it a try. 😀
Came here to ask this too :) thank you
too fast.. had to slow to 0.25... maybe use different colours for new perspective lines?
Thanks for the tip😀
Based on your lines, i believe you are an architect.
Thanks Albertus. Actually I’m not, although I did seriously consider architecture when I left school. Instead I became a teacher. I suspect both are helping me make these videos now. 😀
I have a question for anyone knowledgeable about drawing from life. Drawing a thumbnail sounds good but what if you’re drawing actual objects in front of you as opposed to from photos?
You can’t exactly take a pen and measure the angles…or can you?
Would love to be able to correctly eyeball proportion and perspective 😢
You can still measure angles by holding pen in front and bringing it down onto the paper. More accurate than it sounds. Drawing from life feels harder as we are distracted by our perception of 3D in our subjects and it can affect where and how we place our lines. We can also perceive depth which can be confusing when we draw. A photo has already made the scene 2D, which is why it feels easier to draw from. 😀
Now what’s the next step 😂
Starting to draw I’d say. 😀
Practice
