  How to draw a building with a two point perspective Message from Cathy! Next class on Oct 5th (1 1/2 weeks away) I will be assisting the group in drawing a 2 point perspective building. Below is a YouTube video on drawing a building in this perspective.  You can use this for practice and next week I will update you on a more difficult drawing and the tools to have. And please don’t fret about the class, we will do it together. In the meantime I will practice, practice, practice so I can help you. Have a wonderful day and week ahead!
