Instructions
Sketch 5 rows and 5 columns with a pencil.
Draw each letter of the alphabet inside of the boxes. One box will have to have 2 letters in it.

Notes
You can do
this technique with any colors or subject matter
. Have fun and experiment with this process!
You can lightly sketch the letters with a pencil or draw with a permanent marker before using oil pastels.
If you want your art to be exact, you could use a ruler to help make your grid. Eyeballing the lines worked well for us.
