[BLTX]

Is there's one thing I've always struggled with when it comes drawing, it is, in general, perspective. Especially with more complicated drawings like bedrooms and such.

when in doubt, use a reference photo! There's a bunch of great guidelines out there, but for me I really learn by just doing the thing and fastest way for me is to use a reference photo thats as close to the thing I want to draw. Its way easier to see the visual of the actual thing rather than wondering if my perspective lines were accurate or triple checking that the lines went in the right place. Of course, everything is just a tool, use what you find helps you the best or maybe even a combo!
