To create the illusion of space in a one-point perspective image, you would use a vanishing point. This technique involves drawing parallel lines that converge at a single point on the horizon, creating the illusion that objects in the distance appear closer together, similar to how railroad tracks appear to converge.

To create an illustration of perspective, this artist did all of the following except distort proportion to keep the background and foreground the same size. In perspective art, objects in the background are typically drawn smaller than those in the foreground to create a sense of depth. Distorting proportion in a way that maintains the same size for both would counteract the illusion of depth.
