Vanishing points outside the page?
Vanishing points outside the page?
This is a common situation, because most scenes are composed with
the naked eye, or
a lens with a "natural" angle e.g. from 40mm to 85mm
Traditional solution: Stabilize the artwork on a flat surface, and mark the vanishing points on the surface outside the art, e.g. with masking tape to avoid surface damage.
Digital solution: Zoom out. Photoshop's Shape, Line and Pen Tools can create the guide lines from outside the canvas boundary.
