A method of continuously drawing a series of alpha-numerical characters, an image, or a design or scene on a surface with a drawing instrument in which no line intersects any other line and no portion of characters is retraced. Images and designs can also be incorporated with continuous alpha-numerical characters. Also disclosed is a method of drawing an image on a surface that simulates a three-dimensional object or scene. Products can be created using any of the above-described techniques. Such products can include, but not be limited to greeting cards, postcards, apparel, coffee mugs, toys, games, puzzles, and the like. The surface on which the image is drawn can be made of material suitable for three-dimensional reliefs, so that visually impaired individuals can appreciate the work.

A method of painting is presented. The method is provided in a container such as a bag. The bag may be plastic. A paint mixture is placed into the plastic bag. The bag is sealed and then one of a plurality of corners of the plastic bag is removed. The plastic bag is squeezed to extract the paint. The corner of the plastic bag may be removed by a tool such as a knife, scissors, etc. The size of the opening in the corner of the plastic bag is useful in determining width of the lines of paint that are placed onto a painting surface.

A method of digital continuous and simultaneous three-dimensional painting, drawing and three-dimensional object navigating with steps of providing a digital electronic display capable of presenting two pictures for a right eye and a left eye; providing means for creating a continuous 3D virtual canvas by digitally changing a value and sign of horizontal disparity between two images for the right eye and the left eye and their scaling on the digital electronic display corresponding to instant virtual distance between the user and an instant image within the virtual 3D canvas; providing at least one multi-axis input control device allowing digital painting or object navigating within virtual 3D canvas by providing simultaneous appearance of a similar objects on the images for the right eye and the left eye on the digital electronic display.

A tracing board assembly includes a transparent sheet having a first surface and a second surface. The first surface including a plurality of hooks providing hook-and-loop adhesion. A frame may be secured to a perimeter of the transparent sheet. An original image abuts the second surface of the transparent sheet and visible through the transparent sheet. The original image may include alphanumeric characters corresponding to colors of yarn. A pen having a tubular body has yarn extending through the tubular body. The pen can be used to adhere the yarn to selected areas of the transparent sheet using the original image as a guide.

The present invention is directed to a device, a system and a kit for creating pixel artwork. A device may include a stencil for sidewalk chalk that has a planar body and a plurality of apertures. The stencil may be repositionable on a surface of a substrate and may guide application of a marking device to generate a pixelated grid on the surface of the substrate positioned below the stencil. The pixelated grid may be formed by multiple pixel components that correspond to the stencil. Both a system for creating pixel art and a pixel art kit may include a sidewalk chalk stencil, a plurality of marking devices, and either a pixel assignment or a first instruction. The pixel assignment and the instruction may direct application of the plurality of marking devices to create a pixel artwork of substrate.

Disclosed is a method for processing an ink, stone and oil painting, comprising the steps of: mounting a Chinese painting painted on a piece of Chinese art paper by hand on the base plate; determining a replacement part on the surface of the painting, and determining a sculptural material according to the contents of the painting in the replacement part, and processing a sculptural module; placing the sculptural module on the replacement part and fixing same to the base plate; and further processing the sculptural module and connecting same to the surface of the painting. Drawing by using techniques of oil painting and sculpture/Chinese painting makes the contents of the painting coordinate with the contents of a viewing surface of the sculptural module.
