Master the Art of Proportion with Grid Method.
Whether you are a beginner learning to sketch or a professional painter working on a realistic portrait, accurate proportions are the foundation of great art. Grid Method is a lightweight, precision-focused tool designed to help you overlay customizable grids on your reference photos β making the centuries-old grid technique faster, smarter, and easier than ever before.
Why the Grid Method?
The grid method is a technique used by masters from Da Vinci to modern hyper-realists. By breaking a complex image into manageable squares and transferring them one by one, you achieve accurate proportions and perfect scale β without the struggle, without the guesswork.
Key Features
π¨ Smart Reference Cropping
Crop your photo before gridding with a built-in rule-of-thirds guide. Focus on exactly what you want to draw β nothing more, nothing less.
π Any Size. Any Orientation.
Choose from standard presets β A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 β or set fully custom paper dimensions. Switch between portrait and landscape orientation to perfectly match your physical canvas.
β Powerful Grid Controls
Toggle standard grid, diagonal crosshatch lines, and numbered labels independently. See your image broken down exactly the way you need it.
π Pixel-Perfect Cell Size
Set your grid cell size to the exact centimeter. Use the default square grid or go advanced with custom width and height dimensions β your grid matches your paper, not the other way around.
ποΈ Full Stroke Customization
Adjust line thickness in pixels. Choose from preset colors or pick any custom color with the built-in color picker β full visibility on dark or light reference photos.
β¬ Black & White Mode
Switch your reference to grayscale instantly. See values and tones the way your pencil will β distraction-free, contrast-focused drawing reference.
