Do you consider using the grid method in drawing and painting from photos cheating or a useful tool? I don't use it often, but I have used the Grid Art tool kit to do a couple of paintings in order to get them done faster and make them more accurate. I told the people I did the paintings for that I used the grid method (neither of those are on this website; all the pictures I have uploaded to Artwanted.com were done w/o the grid method).
What do you think? Thanks!
