Answers may vary. Choosing a vanishing point, the point at which all the orthogonals, or imaginary lines, converge.

Answer:

You must draw a horizon line

Step-by-step explanation:

To work, a perspective should have a horizon line, a vanishing point, and a group of parallel lines that converges to this vanishing point. What will create a sense of perspective are these parallel lines and the way you'll draw dealing with the lines. So, before everything, create your horizon line, think about your drawing and try to understand how you'll deal with the parallel lines.
