I've had some people ask about my process of transferring the final image to my painting surface recently, so I'll share. It's pretty straightforward. Btw, this is just the way I do it... there may be other, better ways.
Happy Holidays everyone!
Final image.
Traced and cleaned-up (same step).
Tape traced image to watercolor paper. In this case, 300lb Fabriano cold press watercolor paper. Small piece of Saral graphite transfer paper (use for multiple tracings).
Carefully slide transfer paper under the tracing, while trying not to smudge the surface.
Press fairly hard (without denting your final surface too much).
Transferred image.
I darkened the transferred lines, but I used a fairly light wash, so this step was unnecessary.
Initial wash, some drybrush texture and starting in with the solid shapes. I'm careful to cover over my pencil lines.
More of the same.
Finished painting with tape removed.
Hope this is useful!
