Description
For our first assignment in Perspective, we were told to draw boxes on, above and below the horizon, and leave the guidelines in while darkening the outlines of the boxes. Fron the submissions I've seen thus far, I can tell some of my classmates have never tried it before, so I thought I'd post my example here, in case some of you have never dealt with it either.

If you use a straight edge and draw a line diagonally from the top right hand corner of your paper to the bottom left, then the top left to bottom right, you'll have a Vanishing Point where the two lines intersect. Draw squares in various sizes wherever you like on the page, then connect each corner of each box to the vanishing point. For each box, draw a paralell line connecting the two diagonals at some place above the original, depending on how large you want the box to be. You can finish the other three sides of what will become a box by connecting paralell sides and bottom in proportion to the original lines.
