Perspective Drawing

We used a Bamboo tablet and Photoshop to create a perspective drawing
First of all we drew out a rough sketch of a figure on a bench sitting in a park, we then drew an horizon line at the top. 


Step 2: We used the pen tool to pick a point on the picture as to where we thought our perspective line should go and then drew lines, trying to match them up with the concrete slab lines we already had in place 
To speed up this process we used the arrow icon (select tool, which is the white arrow), clicked the end where the white dot was (not the line itself) and copied and pasted it to create multiple lines 
To colour and define the lines we clicked the Perspective point and dragged the mouse to select all of the lines- we then created a new layer- went to paths- brush- unchecked shape dynamics- size 5/6px
Then go back to paths and select stroke path with brush (opacity 100%)- its the unfilled circle icon at the bottom of the right hand panel. 
Step 3: We created a layer and put it at the very top. To refine the lines we had a higher opacity selected for the brush and drew over the existing lines, this time making them more precise and therefore refining the sketch 


Step 4: Unlock the background and reduce the opacity to 50% 
Layer under the background and use the bucket tool to fill it with white 
Finally, draw the figure onto the picture
