Basically, the grid method is nothing more than overlaying a grid onto an original image that you wish to paint, and then placing a matching grid pattern on your canvas. For example, if your original image is an 8″ x 10″ photograph, you could draw a one-inch grid onto the photograph to create a grid pattern with eighty squares (eight squares by ten squares). The original photograph or image is now divided nicely into eighty bite-sized pieces, each of which are much easier to sketch onto the canvas than the entire original. (source: Paint By Grids)
