Description

Understanding perspective drawing is one of the biggest challenges that creative people meet. This course takes the that challenge away and sets you on your way to being a creative perspective illustrator! 

Whether or not you consider yourself an artist, you will understand perspective after taking this course! And, if you didn't know how to use GIMP design software, you will also become a proficient GIMP'er with just a few easy lessons.

This course uses real life photography to display the actual fundamentals of how perspective works in reality, and then breaks down the basics on how to use that knowledge to create beautiful illustrations. 

Whether it be a simple greeting card design, landscape art, background art, or even just making art "for Art's sake", you will find this course incredibly useful for all of your creative endeavors. 

Graphic Designers, Photographers, Creative Artists and Illustrators all find perspective to be incredibly useful as our understanding of space and depth can make a huge difference in the presentation of your visual works.

This course extensively covers all of the tools you will need to start drawing anything in GIMP with emphasis on the tools needed to create stunning perspective illustrations.

GIMP software is free and open-source without any hassle. Maybe you are planning to buy Photoshop, and that is fine, but why not try GIMP first? It's free! You can install GIMP on any computer, it is compatible with Windows, Apple's iOS, and Linux computers.

I will also be sharing my many years of illustration tips and tricks to help advance your illustration knowledge, both with slow step-by-step instruction and with time lapse video to keep you entertained through the slow parts.

As your instructor, I am always available, and I will do my best to make sure you overcome any challenges you meet!

I am looking forward to seeing you in class!

Awesome, just awesome... I can't think of one thing he could have done better. I'm going to look through all of his other courses to see if there's anything else he teaches that I want to learn because he is exactly the kind of instructor I want to learn from. My only regret with this course is that I can't give it a higher rating than 5 stars. Thanks Brendon Schumacker.

I am leaving this credit because the lectures are always to the point and in a very reasonable time. I also like very much the small fast videos of how he is making a picture. They give a lot of information in practice really fast as a revision. Its really nice ! Thank you !

The course is good. Knowing the concept of 1, 2 and 3 perspective points is important to me, as I am a beginner to learn drawing. The course explains very clearly the concept of 1, 2 and 3 perspective points and describes further details in examples.
