118. The Grid Method
 Grid Method an inexpensive, low-tech way to reproduce and/or enlarge an
image that you want to paint / draw
involves drawing a grid over your reference photo (someone
who inspires you) & then drawing a grid of equal ratio (8 x 8) on your work surface.
you need to have a ruler, a copy of your reference image, a
paper & a pencil to draw lines on the image
take a picture of your work beside your reference photo (in
one photo, with your name) then send it to your class representative (whom I sent
this ppt/pdf to). Your class representative will upload your photos to the album
where he/she uploaded your ‘photography’ works.
