Video Transcript
Adding shadows to the objects in your perspective drawing is a great way to make it look realistic. So in this lesson, we are going to learn how to draw shadows in perspective
For detail instructs on how to draw shadows, please refer to the video above.
Here's a quick summary off the shadow drawing process:
Step 1: Draw your objects
Step 2: Determined the location of the light source
Step 3: Locate the shadow vanishing point. (The shadow vanishing points will be vertically aligned with the light source)
Step 4: Draw a line from the light source through each of the top outer corner of your object (be sure to extend the line pass the corners)
Step 5: Draw a line from the shadow vanishing point to each of the respective bottom outer corner of the object (be sure to extend the line pass the corners)
Step 6: The points where the top and bottom line intersect will be a corner of your shadow. Connect the points together to form the shadow shape and shade it in.
And that's how you draw a shadow in perspective for a simple object.
Now, if you like this lesson and would like to learn more about perspective drawing, I highly recommend you check out my course, "Perspective Made Simple"

Wow this tutorial is insanely amazing, I have been drawing for over 10 years and was never taught how to work out the shadow lines like the way you teach in this video, I always struggled with shadows boundaries, this tutorial definitely helps me improve my shadows, I can't tell you how grateful I am watching this video, thank you so much 🙏

This is great stuff! Shadows can make or break a drawing, this is so important, better than just guessing!☺

Nice tutorial. You seem to teach with ease, well done. I was just browsing different perspective drawing tutorial videos when i came upon your video.
