Great reference for classical perspective,
By
This review is from: Creative Perspective for Artists and Illustrators (Paperback)
A more technical approach to perspective than other books on perspective that I have read. Waston uses analysis of illustrators to demonstrate the points of perspective. I found this most entertaining and interesting.I try to read this periodically to re-enforce and re-learn the principles of perspective.

Learning how to break the rules...,
By Jeremy W. Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Creative Perspective for Artists and Illustrators (Paperback)
I had read this book before purchasing it. I bought it to re-read and absorb the points made in the book. It will definitely get you thinking about how to "modify" the perspective in your picture to get the view right.

For a creative Artist,
By Anmar A. Al Mallak "Animator" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Creative Perspective for Artists and Illustrators (Paperback)
This book shows how perspective is being used for creative purposes not too simplified and not too technical either. It's rare to find an Artist who does it naturally but even when I was one of those this book made me aware of it!
