Train in perspective

October 2005
Age 9

I showed the girls how I would often draw trains as a child—in dramatic 1-pt. perspective. I learned the trick from a neighbor girl (and babysitter) when I was about 4. I created a rather simple and stylized formula that I then passed on to my girls.

You can see one of my original train drawings here.

You can see Ellie's version here.
