One common question that many beginning artist ask is, do I have to draw before I can paint? The answer is that you should have drawing skills, or at least a way to make it appear that you can draw. The good news is that drawing is make easy when you use the grid method. When you use a grid to obtain accurate drawings you are literally following your own step by step technique for drawing.

The grid method is a great way to get a small picture onto a larger area such as a canvas. The grid is actually a way to break a picture down into a dozen or more smaller more manageable pictures.

Okay, so now that you are aware that the grid method is the way to go, it's time to get set and start using it. First you need your reference or source image, once you have that, simply create a grid over the top of it. Now that you have done that, grab your piece of paper or canvas where you will be drawing or painting, and draw a grid on that in light pencil, and be sure to make sure it is the same proportion as your source image grid. Then you are ready to start working on your image grid by grid, paying close attention to accuracy.

Lets say that you are working with a photo or picture that you cant draw lines directly on. An excellent way to still be able to use a grid would be to draw the grid on a transparency or having a transparency or overlay made. You will be able to use it over and over again. Just make sure that you tape the photo on a piece of paper, then tape the transparent grid on top of the photo. This way, your lines won't move. Lightly draw with a pencil, a grid on your painting surface. Keep these lines light because you will be erasing them when your drawing is complete.

No matter what way you decide to draw or paint your image, be sure to do it in order, so if you choose to go left to right from top to bottom, be sure to follow that process all the way through to complete your image creation.

In conclusion, you can now see how simple it is to draw or paint when you break down the process into small actionable steps as outlined above. Be sure to remember that drawing should be fun, so get out there and enjoy the whole process, you will see a great difference in your finished art work.
