[typography font=”Cantarell” size=”24″ size_format=”px”]  Many artists avoid linear perspective because they’ve been taught that there are rules to be memorized and followed in order to use perspective correctly. This series of lessons teaches linear perspective in a more creative light, showing you how to render your subjects in correct linear perspective without rules. This more intuitive approach requires only awareness of where you, the artist, are positioned and how to find the right tilt of angles from that viewpoint.

Among Dianne’s passions about painting and teaching painting is how composing principles can expand creative freedom if the artist transcends the “rule” idea and instead, transforms the principle into a tool that opens creative doors.  In 1435, Leon Battista Alberti (1404-1472),  provided the first theory of what we now call linear perspective in his book, On Painting.  From that time forward, linear perspective is associated with mathematical rules rather than a potential for creative exploring.  Dianne’s intention is to reverse that tendency.
