In today's vid I'm showing you a quick trick for drawing circles in perspective.
I hope you'll find this useful for sketching, as well as drawing for the purpose of painting!
As always would love to hear your thoughts on this and what else you'd like me to cover in future vids (:

I would definitely like a part 2 on this; maybe of changing the perspective of a reference or lining up different references in one composition.

I have long used a poker chip with perpendicular lines going through the center. It is quite useful and quick for determining what a circle should look like in the setting of the image.

This was a brilliant demonstration Liron , please do more of the same as I am learning such a lot from you , Thank you for your very clear way of explaining how to draw things correctly .

Yes,,, I would like to see more like this. Very helpful. I find perspective difficult and having a visual like you showed with the small paper square and moving rotating it was really helpful. Thank you for breaking it down like you did. I look forward to seeing your sketch book and hope you will talk a bit about movement and rotation in your sketches.

Oh my gosh, thank you! I’m learning vintage advertising art, specifically of food, and they’re are LOTS of circles. I can never find reference photos at the angle/perspective I want. This is gonna be SUPER helpful in moving things around accurately.

Great video Liron. Perhaps you could also discuss in a future video how to make the curve look smooth. In particular, when I am drawing a jar and the top is slightly below the horizon, on the "corners" I can't draw them well. For example, looking at a planter, I can get the curve right in the front and back, but at the sides it's either too sharp or not sharp enough. I hope you understand what I'm saying. Please help with this! Thanks so much.

could you create a video on perspective in landscapes. when you are in front of a nature landscape, plein-air, where to start? where is the horizon line? how to interpret rocks and cliffs, the sky and clouds, a river to convey correct perspective?! Do perspective grid lines help? thanks

Dear Liron, could you please explain if it’s possible to tell whether it’s a square or rectangle or any other shape in perspective? All of them get distorted, but is there any set of rules that could guide to identify shapes in perspective? I would be very appropriative if you film a video about it!

Recently, I made open acrylics , colour mixing in stay wet palette, with almost 60 hues......ready in the stay wet palette wells......its so useful for hobbyist like me,.......going to day work......come home.....just open the readymade palette with all the colours...and just paint whatever easily like colour pencils or pastel pencils......best part is the palette never dries if i keep spraying water before closing the palette everytime i use. Im expressing this to others......who are like me .......want to do daily quick painting and use acrylics(OPEN , SLOW DRYING)

But for me, the problem already starts with the square in perspective. How do I know where to "cut" it horizontally, so it is actually a square. Is there a rule or do i really have to know it from experience?

@LironYan Жыл бұрын

Mostly from drawing lots of cubes in perspective! There are some actual ways of measuring (I’ll need a refresher), but the best way is to use a real cube and give it a go. One way to look at it is, that by drawing a single cube you practice this at least twice, if not 3 times (: You sometimes have to account for the depth more than you realize (in other words - the lines receding into the distance are drawn MUCH shorter than you’d think). Try measuring them from actual photos of cubes, and then slowly build towards doing it intuitively, and then from real life, and you’ll get it 💪😁

@esel1233 Жыл бұрын

@@LironYan thanks for the answer. I actually found a rule. You take the angle between front plane and line towards the vanishing point in half and draw a line. Where it crosses the other line towards the vanishing point, its the place to cut. But for boxes that are no cubes, I guess one needs to grow experience, as you said, so that i don't draw any box, but the box i see/imagine.

An ellipse is an oval, but an oval need not be an ellipse. Ellipses have the axes you refer to, while an oval does not necessarily.

I don't know if you have a tutorial somewhere, but there's a way to add 4 more points to make the circle more perfect- first you have to divide each side of the square into 3 segments by: first finding the center point (like you did here by connecting the 4 corners, then extending 2 lines from the midpoint to the 2 vanishing points) and then finding the midpoints of two halves of the square by again connecting the corners of the halves using diagonals (X). Then, you find the points where the diagonals of the square intersect the diagonals of the halves. Then, by extending the lines that connect these intersections beyond the edge of the square, we find the points that divide the sides into 3. Then if we connect the 2 points closest to each corner with diagonals that extend beyond the sides of the square, they intersect to create a square that is the same size as the original but rotated about the center at a 45° angle. THEN (lol) where the diagonals of THIS square intersect the sides of the original square, we have 4 more points to help us draw a more precise circle in perspective, lol. Hope that makes sense. If not, feel free to dm me on insta: @horse.eggs and I'll send pics or vids to help. ❤
