Isometric drawings are drawn to the same scale along all three axes (x,y,z) so are useful for giving a sense of relative dimensions, and three dimensional scale. Measurements can also be taken from the drawings for items that lie along or parallel to an axis.

Isometric art is mostly used for mechanical drawings, but for a visual artist or illustrator it can be very useful to practice with perspective and foreshortening. You can create isometric drawings with or without the standard dotted paper.
