If you are going to delve into a lot of perspective in your drawing and composition, then I seriously recommend this book to be at hand.

Lenses often distort lines and if you copy what the camera shows you the picture will not look right.

I have seen horrible distortions of buildings and windows by artists who should have known better.

I, myself, have made mistakes when merging photographs - adding a few buffalo to the background of foreground buffalo - and realizing after framing that the rear most animal could not possibly be that large.

Robertson currently teaches at the renowned ArtCenter in Pasadena which is one of the best colleges for studying concept art. At only 96 pages you may think this is nothing but a cursory read. But the Perspective Drawing Handbook is truly a great resource to have by your side while drawing. When learning about eye-level and convergence points it helps to study visual representations rather than just written ideas.

This book can be valuable for any artist of any skill level. Even more advanced artists may refer to some of the diagrams for a quick re-cap. As one of the newest books in this list, Drawing Perspective by Matthew Brehm offers a fresh take on classic perspective lessons. This book targets newer artists who want to learn perspective through rigorous repetition. You start with the basics and slowly move through topics like vanishing points and how these affect the total points in a perspective grid.

My favorite exercises are the ones that force you to draw objects in perspective based on a particular scene. It sounds a lot easier than it is. I recommend this book to anyone who wants live practical exercises for studying perspective. Some artists dive in and create while they draw, and this is totally fine. But studying perspective allows you to pre-plan your ideas before putting them on paper.

But as with most art fundamentals, the topics never go out of style and there is no wrong way to learn.
