How to make a drawing using one three point perspective

 

Draw a Box Using Three-Point Perspective

 

Three-point perspective is probably the most challenging of all. 

 In three point perspective, every right-angle line in the drawing will eventually converge on one of three perspective points. This can look distorted if the vanishing points are two close together, but if they are far enough apart, three-point perspective is the most accurate way of drawing the world around you in three dimensions.

 

Draw a short vertical line for the front corner of your box (the black line in the picture) and then draw a construction line ('orthogonal') from the top of the line, to each vanishing point (the red lines).

 

Next draw a line (the blue lines) to the left and right of your 'front corner' to the third point (VP3). From the top and bottom points of this line, draw construction lines back to the RIGHT and LEFT vanishing points (the green lines to VP1 and VP2). 

 

Somewhere on the front corner (the black line) draw lines (the light purple lines) back to (VP1 and VP2).
