The perspective grid

A perspective grid is a visual tool used by artists and designers to create the illusion of depth and spatial relationships on a flat surface. It consists of a network of lines converging towards one or more points called vanishing points, simulating how parallel lines appear to meet as they recede into the distance. This grid helps maintain accurate proportions and angles, making scenes look three-dimensional and realistic. Essentially, it’s a framework that guides the placement and scaling of objects so they appear consistent with how we perceive depth in real life.
