Criss-cross your canvas or paper lightly with three vertical lines and three horizontal lines- the same as on the “viewing grid.” They serve as a guide for the angle. Hold the “machine” at arms length, then scan around and pick the composition you like best. Move the thin steel strips around on the magnetic border to line up with the building angles, the street, the mountain, etc., see where they cross the little squares, then mark the same crossings on your squared-off canvas or paper. Note: The blue filter tint is to neutralize the colors so that you may readily see true values. JP100

This view finder is intended to help you create drawings that are more life-like and believable. This handy little device teaches you to take compositional elements, such as proportion or perspective, and relay them to your drawing with the utmost precision and accuracy. The side of the QuicKomp can also be used as a straight edge. 6" x 8".
Use a reducing glass to take in the big picture! It's a convenient tool to shrink what you see and get a better feel for composition instead of stepping far back from your artwork. Ideal for commercial art studios or ad agencies. Fine quality optically ground and polished 3” reducing lens, mounted in a polished metal rim with a sturdy plastic handle.
