It does, however it doesn’t remove human error and it doesn’t help at all with situations or angles where you don’t have clearly defined contours, such as when representing facial features for example. People tend to draw what they understand, not what they see, even when using the one eye trick.
Comment on Why did it take so damn long for humanity to "learn" how to draw/paint realistic images?
Zacryon@feddit.org 3 weeks agoThe artist needs to use the brain and translate a lot, and I mean an awful lot, of the information seen in the model (3d space) into 2d.
Close one eye or put an eyepatch on. I’d expect this makes 3D -> 2D transformations easier after a while.

That is one of the techniques I was taught in a sketching class.
