Perspective Notes

My Perspective Notes have moved: tcstarnes.com - Perspective Notes

The original Perspective Notes page of this blog was by far the most popular page, receiving many times more internet traffic than all of my other pages combined. I had planned to expand that page to be an online resource for my students at the Academy of Art University (AAU). Now, I've finally done something to that effect on my website, where I was able to utilize clickable step-by-step diagrams made for my online classes.

Below are examples from my original Perspective Notes page. If you like these, you can find a lot more on the link above.
