-
Create boundaries between shapes
-
Create boundaries between colors, textures or values

Grid drawing is a very old technique of transferring images (from sketches to a full size canvas or fresco, etc...)
Always make sure that the number of squares on the original picture and your working area are exactly the same (even if the size of the squares are bigger on the paper). This is because no matter how many times bigger (or smaller) you make the drawing, the proportions and dimensions can only stay the same if the number of boxes (squares) matches exactly.
Make sure you follow all steps below.

Unit 5 Overview
Modernity in the 19th and 20th Centuries
The art world underwent massive transformations in the 19th and 20th centuries. A series of revolutions and two World Wars reshaped the face of the Western world. Artists responded by creating new aesthetics to match the changing times.
Neoclassicism and Romanticism were responses to this revolutionary era. One sought to justify war with a return to tradition, and the other rejected war by exploring the emotional depth of the individual. But, each movement used art as a political tool.
Once artists began to question how and why art was made, new aesthetics emerged that broke free from the strictly representational or "realistic" Classical styles.
Impressionists and later Cubists created art in styles no one had ever seen before, and literally redefined what could be considered art.
As art became more and more abstract and old systems of patronage fell away, a new art market emerged. Art became a commodity to be bought and sold.
The 19th and 20th centuries were a revolutionary time for art and the world at large.
Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2, ca. 1912 by French/American artist Marcel Duchamp. The extremely abstract image shocked viewers when it first debuted at the 1913 Armory show in New York City.
