1. An electronic linear perspective drawing tool comprising:
- (a) an electronic transparent drawing canvas which is interposed at substantially a right angle between a three-dimensional object or scene to be drawn and the eye of an artist such that the object or scene can be traced on said canvas;
(b) a user interface apparatus for drawing on said electronic drawing canvas;
(c) computer means operably connected to said drawing canvas and user interface apparatus having a computer memory for storing inputs made on said electronic drawing canvas using the user interface apparatus; and
(d) a software drawing application stored in said computer memory.

Abstract
An electronic linear perspective drawing tool and system particularly designed to draw and paint linear perspective, utilizing a graphic computer system with a transparent organic light-emitting diode (TOLED) display and a drawing input device, which may preferably be a haptic device or a stylus used in combination with a pressure sensitive touch screen, whereby the TOLED serves as an electronic window and drawing canvas that is interposed between the scene to be drawn and the eye of the artist so that the drawing input device can be used to create an artistic rendering on the electronic canvas or screen overlay.
