WHAT YOU NEED: ruler, pen, pencil, paper.
STEP 1: Draw a horizontal line using a ruler and pencil. Estimate the midpoint and draw a dot using a pen.
STEP 2: Draw a square below the line using a ruler and pencil.
STEP 3: Join each of the corners of the square with the dot on the horizontal line.
STEP 4: Draw a smaller square behind the first. This should fit between the diagonal lines.
Draw over both squares and the diagonal lines between them and erase the rest of the pencil lines. That's how you draw in perspective!
