How to draw a portrait pattern from a photograph for a scroll saw (Audrey Hepburn) 

This is how I design a portrait pattern from a photograph to use with a scroll saw. I’m demonstrating using a free software program, Gimp, although Photoshop and ProCreate work in similar fashion. The finished template you see in this video is able to be used, but I like to refine it a little further using another program. There will be a shorter follow up video that outlines how I refine the pixels of the pattern and size it to the exact size I want.
Be sure to follow me on Instagram @smckenart and on Facebook at McKenna Scroll Craft for scroll saw woodworking content, and an occasional free pattern/template! And feel free to reach out with questions or comments!
