Generate a black-and-white photo grid for an art exercise. Set the cell count and labels, then download a reference you can interpret by hand.
Blank Square 1:1 grid, 10 rows x 10 columns
A 4×4 drawing grid keeps the portrait in proportion.
Upload a photo with clear shapes. A single object against a plain background makes a useful first grid art exercise.
The starting 10x10 grid divides a square into 100 cells. Reduce the count if the lines obscure your subject.
Keep grayscale on for a value exercise or restore color for a color study. Export the image and create the artwork yourself.
No. This page adds a regular grid and an optional black-and-white treatment to your uploaded image. The drawing or painting remains your own task.
Yes. Download the 2400-pixel-wide PNG and print it at a suitable size. The selected paper shape controls proportions; the print dialog controls physical dimensions.
Try drawing only the largest light and dark shape inside each cell. When you step back, those separate decisions should describe the original subject. The generator supplies the guide; it does not choose brush strokes, synthesize artwork, or replace the reference with a new image.
A 10x10 grid is useful for deliberate small studies, while 5x5 leaves more room for free interpretation. Lower the line opacity for a dark photograph. Keep labels off when you want a quieter visual reference, and turn them on if you need to name individual cells.
