What is the Grid Method of Drawing?
The grid method is a technique that has helped countless artists improve the accuracy and proportions of their drawings. By breaking down both the reference image and the drawing surface into a grid of equal squares, this method allows you to focus on one square at a time. This approach simplifies the drawing process, ensuring that you capture detailed sections and maintain the overall proportions of your artwork correctly.

How to Use GridArt
Master the grid method drawing with these simple steps:
- Select Your Reference Image: Choose the image you wish to draw.
- Create a Grid on the Reference Image: Overlay a grid of evenly spaced vertical and horizontal lines on your reference image. You can use any number of squares, with common choices being 1-inch or 1-centimeter squares.
- Create a Grid on Your Drawing Surface: Draw a corresponding grid on your drawing paper or canvas, ensuring that the number of squares and their proportions match the grid on the reference image.
- Transfer the Image: Focus on one square at a time. Observe each square in the reference image and replicate the lines, shapes, and details into the corresponding square on your drawing surface. This method helps maintain the correct proportions and placement of elements within your drawing.
