Step 1:a) Start with a horizon line across the middle of your picture

plane. Draw lightly so you can erase it.

b) Place a vanishing point in the center of the line. Always keep your vanishing point a small as possible.

c) Draw eight rectangles around the outer edge. Make sure the two boxes on either side of the vanishing point cross the horizon line. Use a ruler so that the lines are straight.
