Transferring drawings to watercolor paper
-
@Lee-White ah-HA! Now I think we're really getting down to the nub of the issue -- You just don't like tape do you‽ You're an anti-tape-ist!
Because the "real problem" (as you so vociferously describe it) is solved by -- you guessed it -- a couple pieces of TAPE!
Take the drawing, apply two pieces of hinge tape to the top and presto! You can lift the drawing up check to see if the graphite has transferred to your satisfaction, then lay it right back into place and continue tracing.
@demotlj Very political position to take. Very wise. You can only imagine what it was like when Lee and I shared a studio!

@davidhohn oh it starts with one piece of tape, but then goes to two. Where does this insanity stop!!! also, when you lift the piece of taped together pieces to check your transfer, that piece your are lifting could be made of like 20 taped together pieces of paper. You would look like a crazy person in your studio doing that!!!

Wow! . . . I clearly didn't consider where my reliance on tape could take me. It's --ahem -- quite the slippery slope isn't it‽ -
I'm imagining @Lee-White as one of those people in infomercials who struggle to use everyday objects. And now I'm imagining @davidhohn as Yoko Ono.
