Master the Art of Cartoon Expressions with Draw by Grid: Goofy, Silly, and Grumpy Faces!
Have you ever wanted to draw expressive and hilarious cartoon faces but didn’t know where to start? The Draw by Grid series is here to help! With three exciting books—Draw by Grid: Goofy Faces, Draw by Grid: Silly Faces, and Draw by Grid: Grumpy Faces—young artists can learn how to sketch 150 different characters, each bursting with personality. Whether you want to create funny, mischievous, or downright grumpy expressions, these books provide an easy-to-follow method to help bring those faces to life.
Why the Draw by Grid Method Works
The Draw by Grid technique is a fantastic way for kids to develop their drawing skills while having loads of fun. Each character is broken down into simple shapes and lines within a structured grid, making it easy to recreate detailed and expressive faces step by step. This method helps young artists improve their ability to observe and replicate proportions while also strengthening their fine motor skills. Plus, it builds confidence as kids see their goofy, silly, and grumpy masterpieces take shape one section at a time.
