Transferring your Drawing to Canvas/Support

From sketch to canvas.
Often we prepare a painting from another sketch, for example you may be out with your sketch pad simply to create ideas or note down shapes and scenes. Occasionally you may build a quite detailed drawing on one surface to then decide you want to reproduce it much bigger and in colour on another.

In these situations we need to think about how to move our creations from one format or one scale to another but maintain the characteristics without distorting them and losing the original aesthetics that we created in the sketch. Tim will guide you on ways to do this so that you can rely on your sketch book as a reference for future paintings.
