Location: Downtown Portland
Typical American streets are made up of familiar, repeating elements: sidewalks, buildings, trees, parked cars, pedestrians, and urban details like benches, signs, and streetlights. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to bring these everyday scenes to life using one-point perspective.
Through a clear, step-by-step approach, we’ll construct a perspective grid and use it to accurately place each element within the scene. You’ll develop an understanding of how scale and proportion work together, ensuring that every object—from buildings to figures—fits naturally within the environment and maintains spatial consistency.
