We used Matisse's process, and end up with as few lines as possible, which you then transferred to a clean page and finished with any medium you wished (ink, pencil, charcoal, etc.) 2.

The cube drawn with two vanishing points looks as if the sides are slowly fading away into the distance. 1) First mark a horizon line 3/4's up on the paper, with vanishing points on each side (VP). Then draw one edge of the cube beneath and perpendicular to the horizon line, and centered between the vanishing points. 2) Draw faint lines from each end of the first edge of the cube to the vanishing points. Draw two more edges of the cube so that two sides of the cube can be clearly seen. 3) To add the top of the cube, draw two more
