Mr.Koala-Thank you for the insightful response! Yes, I suppose you are right. I only really want to learn perspective for drawing and painting stuff like landscapes, monsters and characters (which would be useful for the graphic novel I hope to write). I plan to focus on the Natural Way to Draw book more now.
Patrick-Thank you Patrick. As I said before, I'm not interested in drawing subjects like vehicles and the like, so really just learning the basics might be what I need for now. I think I struggled a bit with placement of objects, if I recall correctly.
Anyway, I did a bunch of gestures...which I'm not showing because they all look like shite. So for now here's a couple of bare bones preliminaries I've done on the side for a couple of pieces, along with my Niccolaides/perspective exercises.
Preliminary sketch for a painting I plan to do. I'm applying some of the stuff I learnt about one point perspective here.
Likewise, some preliminaries for a portrait drawing I plan to do of my friend's dog.
