your canvas.

center of your canvas. This will be your vanishing
Point.

7. Now you can begin creating your room. Start
by using the line tool, located on the upper left
where you choose the shapes.
Starting at your vanishing point, drag the line tool to the edges
Of your canvas, making sure to intersect the corners of your
Inner rectangle. This creates the walls of your room! 

8. Using the line tool, create your bed.
Try to make your vertical and horizontal lines as
Straight as possible. My bed is against one wall.
See it?

9. Try some windows!
Add a table or desk

10. Continue adding details,
until you have it just the way you like it.
Remember, as in your practice drawing; keep all
the side angles radiating from the vanishing
point and the rest of your lines as straight as
you can.

11. Use the Eraser tool to clean up your un-
necessary lines and define your drawing. You
can choose the shape you need, once you click
on it. To help in getting more precise in
cleaning up your lines, you can go up to “view”
-> zoom in.

12. Cleaning up! 
