Draw a grid over the picture!.!.!.!.!.!.then draw the same dimensions of grid on the wall!.!.!.!.!.then draw in each square what you see from the grid on the paper to the grid on the wallWww@QuestionHome@Com
You've already got the idea why not just freehand with a pencil on the wall!. You won't be restricting yourself to what you've done before!. Then once you get the lines down that you want just go over them with paint or marker and erase the others!.
Think of the wall like a huge piece of paper and although the grid system is certainly a useful tool it'll be faster to just start drawing!.
Good Luck!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Use the grid system!. Place tissue paper over your original, and draw lines vertically and horizontally over the entire 8X11!. Then pick a size ( maybe 12'') and do the same on your wall ( 1" orig = 12" 0n the wall) Draw what you see in each 1" sq into the 12" square!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
definitely use a grid system, just do your math right to make sure the grid sizes are the right size considering your wall!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
