ABSTRACT

The orientation of the object being drawn to the picture plane determines whether it has one, two, or three vanishing points. This chapter explores how to combine an object in two-point perspective with an object in three-point perspective. To create a cohesive scene there are several guidelines that must be followed; the two-point object cannot be placed in the scene in a haphazard manner. If done correctly, combining two-point perspective with three-point perspective can result in a dramatic image. This chapter explains the rules an artist must follow when attempting this task.
