Dover Creative Perspective for Artists and Illustrators Creative Perspective for	Price: USD10.67
	SKU: 1441699 Merchant: MisterArt.com Manufacture: Dover Creative Perspective for Artists and Illustrators MisterArt.com
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION In this thoughtprovoking practical guide, noted artist and educator Ernest W. Watson demonstrates that learning to violate the rules of perspective (profitably) is as important for the practicing artist as learning the principles of perspective themselves. Only in this way can students free themselves from the constraints of tradition and find their own imaginative paths. However, it is vital that students have a solid grasp of classical perspective before they can think about adapting it creatively. In presenting the principles of perspective drawing, Mr. Watson devotes a chapter to each type of perspective (picture plane, foreshortening and convergence, threepoint perspective, and more). The result is a groundbreaking study that artists, illustrators, and draftsmen will find invaluable in learning to create works with convincing perspective. Paperback, 160 pages.ISBN 486273377 Dover
