Plan practical cells
Choose a count that can be measured and marked reliably on site.
Large-scale transfer guide
Turn a small approved design into a reference your mural team can follow. Matching coordinates reduce drift across large walls and make it easier to divide work into sections.

How it works
Finalize and crop the approved mural reference.
Choose a grid count that produces practical cell sizes on the wall.
Label the cells, print the guide, and transfer major landmarks first.
Better results
Choose a count that can be measured and marked reliably on site.
Labels give artists a shared reference for discussing wall sections.
Verify the aspect ratio before painting to avoid horizontal or vertical stretch.
The same browser tool adapts to different media, scales, and learning contexts.
Questions
Yes. You can upload a reference image, customize the grid, and export standard PNG, JPG, or PDF files without creating an account.
No. ArtistGrid processes the image locally in your browser. The photo is used to draw the preview and export canvas, but it is not sent to an image-processing server.
Choose a cell size that is easy to measure repeatedly on the wall. The best size depends on wall dimensions, access, detail, and the marking tools used on site.
Yes. Coordinate labels help divide the wall into assigned areas while keeping everyone aligned to one reference.
This page creates the reference grid. A dedicated mural scaling calculator with wall dimensions and cell-size math is planned as a separate tool.
