Sketching and planning

Tape your paper to the board with masking tape. You can either use a table and prop your board somewhat, or an upright easel.

Choose a photo. (If possible), make Division marks Vertically and horizontally.

Mark your paper in the same manner but use LIGHT markings ( you will want to remove these later).

You may want to use this method until your drawing skills are strong to avoid frustration and a sense of failure.
