After having watched some videos on how to paint a horse portrait on Youtube, I chose a reference photo, put a grid on it, selected a paper, put up a grid there as well and began to draw tne horse portrait. I soon noticed how helpful such a grid is. It makes you see - how long is the nose, how small are the ears, where does the eye sit. Yes, it is a bit time consuming to do the grid first and later to erase it, especially if you have no T-square to put up the grid, but it is definitely worth it.
