Create boundaries between shapes

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.
2.3.2 The Van Eycks and Rogier van der Weyden
Unit 4 Overview:
Baroque and Rococo
Renaissance artists mastered perfection in art. Proportion. Mathematical perspective. Balance in composition. Accurate musculature and anatomy.
But artists started to get antsy. The standards for "good" art were so well established they were starting to get boring. What's more, they were limiting artists' ability to express themselves.
As architecture soared to impressive new heights in the 16th century, so did art. The drama of the biggest buildings people had ever seen required big, bold art to match.
Artists had to fill much bigger shoes, and the Mannerist, Baroque, and Rococo styles gave them the means to step into them.
People stopped expecting perfection in art. Instead, they demanded drama.
The Fall of Phaeton, ca. 1604, by Peter Paul Rubens. This painting captures Baroque characteristics. You'll soon find out what those are, but for now, just enjoy the drama.
