I understand the grid method for drawing for the same size. Do you know how to use the method for enlarging a picture? Lenora

Ìf you use the grid method, say picture measures 6 x 4 inches, double the 6 to equal 12 and double the 4 to equal eight. This will double the original size picture making sure everything remains equal. I Hope that helps. Deb
