Gill introduces the three basic types of perspective: one-point, two-point, and three-point with objects inclined to the ground plane (from the worm's-eye to the bird's-eye point of view). He then develops the basic principles into a set of valuable creative tools, using step-by-step processes that enable the reader to understand how to create accurate and convincing visuals.
