1. However you are taking the picture, be sure to hold your device (phone, tablet, computer, or laptop) steady.
  2. Your art needs to lay flat. Either tape it to a wall for a vertical shot, or place on a flat surface (like a table or sturdy cardboard).
  3. Good light is important! Take your picture by a window (art facing the window, not blocking the light) OR take it outside OR put a good light on inside.
  4. Try not to cast a shadow on your art while you are photographing it.
  5. Crop in on the artwork, try not to include background.
  6. Once you photograph it, you can put it in your Drive folder. To do this from a phone, email the image to your school email. From a computer device, look for your pictures and put in your Drive folder.
