Griding a Canvas

Students learned how to use the griding technique to enlarge an image. Students brought in a desired picture that they wanted to paint. They created a 1 inch grid on a canvas using a ruler. They followed a transparency grid to enlarge their image on a canvas. All detail was included. Students learned to break down each box into small lines and shapes. When they were finished they ended up with a picture that was four times the size of their original image.
