    Does this work only if you’re drawing the object the same size. I’m struggling wrapping my head around this.

    Good article on measuring objects with pencil, however, there is no correct or incorrect way to hold a pencil whilst drawing, this belief that there is a difference is a myth.

      There is a difference. I use a variety of grips. Now, there is no “one way” to do anything in art, but to say there is no difference is just asinine. A simple experiment proves you wrong. Anyone who gives different grips a try will be able to say without a doubt that there is a difference (especially in line width and edge softness)
