This is the best explanation i've ever seen on drawing boxes, thank you so much i was so stuck with the challenge!!

this is incredible. very well explained. Ive watched many videos to understand perspective, but a lot of points that you explain here tend to fall between the cracks. answers all the questions i had & in such an engaging way too! thank you.

this video was super engaging! really loved all the editing and real world visualizations. well done!

This is one of the best videos i've seen

The laser technique is what will determine the armature of the box. Yet the centre axis of yxz of the centre of the box will be the only true centre from which one can control the true position and subsequent rotation of the box. Just find the central point and the axis connecting it to the planes from the inside out instead of outside in and adjust the perspective... Every knowledge pours out of that foundational understanding...

Please, you gotta make more art tutorials like this. Especially about perspective. They’re so helpful! PLEASE IM BEGGING 😭

thank you

Love your art! Keep up the great work. Nostalgic seeing my old neighbourhood.

Why does it seem that everyone progresses so quickly but me…

Very helpful, thank you!

THIS IS AMAZING, I've never been this excited to start drawing boxes before lol

For real, what even is this video🥲 Its so well explained and detailed, you are amzing thank you

this feels like how to with john wilson

Nice Job! I have been a fan of Leyendecker for 40+ years. I have a massive ephemeral collection of his published work in addition to original paintings. Contact me if you have an interest in doing some commission work of some other Leyendecker works.

This is a brilliant way of explaining boxes. There are so many deep concepts in here, it is breathtaking. And the presentation is top notch. The three basic types of boxes and the fact that front facing boxes are one point, edge facing are two, and corner facing are three point will revolutionize how I conceive of representing space. Thank you so much for the effort you put into this video! The organization of the ideas and the loopy number of perfect examples makes huge ideas obvious. You are helping thousands of people past roadblocks that very few teachers know how to guide students around. Bravo!

this really is such a nice down-to earth video. The real life examples and charming narration really make it feel like more of a "art is for everyone" vibe instead of the very dedicated art school grindset vibe :D

Well, that was obvious - and yet I hadn't seen it! Just knowing that someone obviously so intelligent has found learning perspective hard is hugely helpful. I have been struggling to understand perspective for about five years now so I can illustrate some written work. I actually started with the misnamed Norling book shown here. I progressed onto many others. As soon as I thought I had grasped it, I sat down at the blank canvas and it dispersed like a dream on waking. I too took some boxes and photographed them but failed to see what was going on because they were static images. Your glass box videos have been an inspiration to me. I have only just discovered Drawabox and I am going to hope that this will finally give me an intuitive understanding of what I need to do. Thank you so much for making this video., you have a real genius for making the impossible seem simple.

Loved your explanation ❤

you just saved my life op, so many videos and exercises an this is the first one that made it all click. Also perspective made easy should be compulsory reading for every artist. thank you nd keep going

cool intro lol

thanks for this, it made me understand perspective easier!!!

so many things I just knew in my head, but didnt think twice, but once I actually thought about those key points you made while sketching, things got much easier!

THANK YOU SO SO SO SO SO SO (input infinite sos here) MUCH. This helped so much, and it made drawing boxes less borning.

THE UNDERPAINTING!!!! i never thought about doing that digitally how smart

Thanks very helpful

'How to with John Wilson' meets an art tutorial. Great work

Basically it is cutting a 2d square to the angle the cube is oriented as

Perfect explanation, thanks! One thing I find hard to understand is how vanishing points move when the box moves to a corner facing position.

lol you take it more seriously than Drawbox ..great work

epic material - thank you for putting so much effort into this! 🎉

I can see the john wilson influence! you do it so well ! hahaha

I am geometrically and mathmatically impaired and this helped so much;__<<;

Great video! Very informative! May I ask what tool you used to analyze these colors?

Big John Wilson energy.

wow! You are the holy grail of over-view educators!!! I love how you used the word "You" instead of "I" to connect the viewwer with the concept in a working way. I love the real-life examples you provided, and the way you've organized your video.

Amazing helpful content.

This is a very amazing video and I hope you never stop making art. Also I can tell a lot work went into this and it is much appreciated.

I am watching this time to time as while drawing the box challenge I am actually losing my senses cuz I am just drawing distorted boxes till i see this

this is so helpful thank you!

this is so much more than just tips, this should be supplementary material for lesson 1. it goes into so much depth while remaining very accessible with how you've used real life and digital references alongside your explanations. making informative tutorials about the technical aspect of art is no easy feat yet you've done it here with such excellence and charm, thank you for posting this

underrated video, I was expecting "rotation" to be an important topic in the the "draw box" course but its missing, its very relevant, no idea why its not explained like this video.

This is easily one of the best art tutorials I've ever seen. So much information thickly condensed, not a second going to waste.

Thanks for this Kate. I feel stupid for not breaking down drawing simple boxes into simple concepts. Just been ramming my pencil head into paper hoping for something to intuitively click. I'm hopeful that you channel has other useful content I can check out :D (Plus thank you for all the reading and reference materials. I've just turned 30 and I'm trying to be more artistic because my younger self always assumed I had no 'talent')

This video was SO helpful! I'm currently doing the Drawabox challenge and it just wasn't clicking in my head for some of them but this video really helped me visualize the boxes better.

Thanks for showing this. Ellen Byerrum is a favorite author.

Good review, very helpful! And, I really like your channel, even so I found it only today😅. I think it's really like "artist's", I mean, you are an artist, but I just don't know how to say it.

wow what a good video

I want to marry english speaking beautiful flower and to reach money level for her first

Not only have you eased the intimidation I've been feeling just reading and hearing of the dreaded boxes, you've also planted the 'eye' in me. I will definitely observe the real word, and think of boxes and cylinders and shapes now.

Well isn't this just a gem of a video, thanks for the effort big dog
