Drawing from a Grid
Students learned that using a grid is a great way to transfer a picture -- any picture from the original to your own paper. A grid is also a terrific way to take a picture and enlarge it to a bigger size. In this case, the students made copies of famous Masterpieces. The original art was 7X9 inches. Students enlarged the pieces to be 14X18 inches. It was pretty tricky, but once they got the hang of it, the results were impressive.
