Vermeer's Technique of Perspective

[Enzie Shahmiri]

A while back I tried to paint an interior with lots of tile work on the ground and on the walls. It all looked so easy, but I run into all sorts of perspective problems and wished I had seen this little trick, before I ever started. My painting is unfinsihed and sits in a corner now, but maybe someone can benefit from this cool idea...
