What is Easy-Draw? Who is it for?

The primary aim of Easy-Draw is to make reproducing an image quicker, easier and more accurate so as to build confidence, experience and, above all, enjoyment and satisfaction for users.

Easy-Draw is suitable for reproducing flat originals like photos and cuttings. Applications may include:
- School classes to get kids off to a fast start
- People looking for a hobby and like the idea of drawing, but distrust their own abilities
- Creating embroidery patterns.
- Reproducing holiday views or family portraits

Most people have some latent talent to draw but give up when their early efforts don't 'look right'. For many, especially beginners, this is because they find it hard to get the proportions and positioning of key elements right. And it takes only a little error, especially with faces, to destroy the whole illusion.

One traditional way of overcoming these difficulties is by using a grid system. The huge downside, though, has been the need to simulate the grid on the final paper somehow. This has involved using specially pre-printed media or the tedious exercise of drawing a feint pencil grid and then trying to erase it again.

The Easy-Draw system resolves this in a simple and remarkably effective way. The image to be reproduced is held in a transparent folder with a grid printed on it. A plastic template, with matching grid squares cut out of it, is placed over your chosen drawing paper. Then key reference points from the picture can be transferred easily and accurately to the corresponding squares on the drawing.

The key benefit here is that the reference marks are made on the final drawing, without any need subsequently to remove or cover any guidelines. It is up to the user whether they want to copy continuous lines (except where prevented by the ribs of the template) or simply to identify the key points and then 'join the dots'.

The Easy-Draw concept offers many genuine benefits over existing drawing aids in general, and grid systems in particular. Early trials have shown that almost anyone can dramatically improve the accuracy and hence realism of their drawings. This in turn builds confidence and enthusiasm.

This simple device will help many, many people to improve their drawing and thus build or restore their faith in their abilities. If it excites one child to the possibilities of drawing, stops one person from giving up too early, or encourages one frustrated artist to pick up the hobby again, then it will have served its purpose.
