Sketch Grid

A reference-photo grid tool for artists transferring or resizing compositions onto a physical drawing or painting surface.

Our take

Consider for grid-based observation practice

Adjustable grids and a clean full-screen reference make it easier to compare proportions section by section.

Keep in mind: The app supplies a visual reference rather than drawing on the physical canvas or guaranteeing accurate reproduction.

What you can do

  • Crop a composition and overlay square, proportional or triangular grids
  • Adjust grid spacing, color and thickness
  • Convert the reference to a sketch-style view
  • Export the adjusted picture at its original resolution

Good for

  • Artists using the grid method to enlarge, reduce or reshape a reference composition.

Consider alternatives for

  • People expecting an automatic finished painting, physical projection or a full layered illustration editor.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 15.0.
  • The app supplies a visual reference rather than drawing on the physical canvas or guaranteeing accurate reproduction.

Privacy & permissions

Imported photographs may include private subjects. Consider what is visible before exporting or sharing an adjusted image.
