Several methods of constructing perspectives exist, including:
- Freehand sketching (common in art)
- Graphically constructing (once common in architecture)
- Using a perspective grid
- Computing a perspective transform (common in 3D computer applications)
- Mimicry using tools such as a proportional divider (sometimes called a variscaler)

Famous quotes containing the words methods of, methods and/or construction:
“All men are equally proud. The only difference is that not all take the same methods of showing it.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“A woman might claim to retain some of the child’s faculties, although very limited and defused, simply because she has not been encouraged to learn methods of thought and develop a disciplined mind. As long as education remains largely induction ignorance will retain these advantages over learning and it is time that women impudently put them to work.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
“When the leaders choose to make themselves bidders at an auction of popularity, their talents, in the construction of the state, will be of no service. They will become flatterers instead of legislators; the instruments, not the guides, of the people.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
