LINDA'S TECHNIQUES | TRANSFERING A PATTERN TO WATERCOLOR PAPER

Once you have made your "Graphite Pattern,"  you will now transfer your drawing to your watercolor paper.  

Place your tracing paper onto your watercolor paper, right side up.  Remember to leave at least 1/2 inch around your drawing for framing and even more if you would like to off center your painting for a contemporary presentation.

In this video, I am using an mechanical pencil with a HB Size .03 lead.  You may also use a mechanical pencil with a .05 lead but I would use any larger pencil lead for a botanical portrait.  The idea is to have as thin as line as possible.








Thank you for visiting, Linda
