In a drawing method for drawing an image on a substrate by relatively moving a drawing head that forms, based on input drawing-point data, drawing points on the substrate with respect to the substrate and by sequentially forming the drawing points on the substrate by the drawing head based on the movement of the drawing head, a relative positional deviation between the substrate and the drawing head during drawing of the image is obtained. Further, formation positions of the drawing points by the drawing head are corrected based on the obtained relative positional deviation.
