  • Hey everyone!
    This is a simple tutorial I use all the time to enlarge and project photos on to canvas so that I can draw and trace round lines to get exact measurements.
    I hope this is helpful!

    I googled how to enlarge and project onto canvas without a projector and it led me to you! This is the exact low tech solution I was looking for! 🎉 Thank you for this video!

      Amazing, I love that!! 💜

    The whole process is an art by itself 😂

      I used this process on a painting I'm getting ready to do and it worked so wonderfully.

    Out of all the methods I’ve seen this is the most clever one! Trying it out today.

      amazing! 😁 thanks for watching!

    Very much like the old masters used to do. You have brought a very affordable way for anyone to enlarge an image. I use a projector, but I am lucky to have one. This is so nice for those who want to enlarge images.

    I was looking at buying a projector, but definitely going to give this a go - thank you Emma! I have lost my confidence with freehand drawing, so this is very useful for me.

    • @EmmaRave
      @EmmaRave  Před 3 lety +2

      Oh that's great! I'm pleased you found this video before spending money on a projector - it really is a good method 👍🏻

    • @HelmetVanga
      @HelmetVanga Před 10 měsíci

      you are right freehand drawing is not easy, it takes plenty of practice. Vincent Van Gogh said, to be a Fine Art painter, you have to start with drawing. Wish you luck with your paintings

    My Dear Friend! My overhead projector fell and stopped working. I have been searching all morning for a work around. After tedious DIYs, apps that are bogus, and a great deal of frustration, I found your video! From one artist to another, much thanks!🤗💜

    This is awesome. I've been asked to do a human portrait. Animals are my specialty. Given the fact that the family member knows exactly what the loved ones looks like, there is no margin for error. This is brilliant.

  • @susansmith-sargent4944

    Brilliant!! I am a silk painter and I frequently need to enlarge my drawings to the proportion of the canvas I will be mounting my silkpainting on (photo>tracing>enlargement). This is by far the simplest, easiest, and cheapest means I have seen of doing that! Thank you for saving me $ on a fancy projector:))))

    • @EmmaRave
      @EmmaRave  Před rokem

      I'm so pleased this will help you and save money!! 😁👍🏻

  • @tomboytalk2108

    You are a life saver!! I am making a display at work (Lowes) for the christmas tree tent area. I needed to project an image onto a fence panel so I could paint it on there. Our projector is missing and to rent one for a 20 minute job was crazy. I have tried some other methods and they didn't work. THIS WAS PERFECT!!
    I can't thank you enough for making this video!!

    • @EmmaRave
      @EmmaRave  Před 3 lety +1

      Aww that's so nice of you to say! I'm so pleased it helped and that you didn't have to end up renting a projector 😁 I bet your display looks lovely!!

  • @philiptownsend4026
    @philiptownsend4026 Před rokem +3

    That's an ingenious approach, I'm impressed.
    You have me thinking now about how to make a version with up to a 24x36 inch canvas horizontally on a table with an Anglepoise or clip lamp so i don't have to crawl about on the floor with my bad back.

    Excellent video! Camera Obscura, Camera Lucida and now we have Camera Emma. Old school projector. Thank you for this. The art to this is approaching it from the right angle so to not obscure your lines. That's a challenge. thank you for this!

    • @EmmaRave

    @nancyloomis3046 Před 9 měsíci +2

    This is such a great idea! I think I’ve heard of it before, but you explained it all so well. I trace a LOT, using carbon paper or just laying down a lot of graphite or color pencil on the back of the photo or image, bc I just don’t want to take forever before I can even start painting…
    the drudgery of erasing, drawing, adjusting, erasing, again, and on and on before I can even get get going with the best part. Thanks so much!

    • @EmmaRave
      @EmmaRave  Před 9 měsíci

      Yes I totally get the struggle of years of tracing and drawing graphs and erasing so I was so happy to find this technique and I'm glad I can share it with everyone 👍🏻
