Video Transcript

"Now what I am doing is going to be the tracing basically a drawing. We are going to use an outline of the shapes that we are going to trace with and we are going to use special transfer paper that you can get at any hobby store because it is erasable just in case you do something wrong that you can erase it. If you will notice one hand is pressing fairly hard so that it will not move and the other hand is doing the drawing. Where do you start, wherever you want to just remember where you start so you won't have double lines. I am doing the stem now we are going to do some of the leaves. Okay let's check it to make sure that we got all the lines down that we need and some of them are not dark enough so we are going to go back over them darker. Okay that should be it. There's the drawing. I don't want them to be very dark I just want them to be there so you can see them because for the most part these are going to stay in your painting. Once the paint is covering them they are usually no longer erasable."
