“Very interesting and helpful.”

“For someone who doesn't readily sit and draw, tracing is an excellent technique but I had never thought of trying much more than tracing the outline of an object. Thank you..... some really interesting ideas to explore next time I trace an image. ”

“Very helpful especially as a refresher.”

“The video was really helpful - simple, but very effective. I'm off to find my tracing paper!”

“I am so pleased I watched this video as it has given me lots of new ideas to think about. Tracing paper will never be the same! Thank you Laura!”

“What a great way to practice drawing! Perhaps, if I do enough tracing, I'll learn something about proportion. The three methods of making marks will be very useful. Thanks for the video.”

“Inspiring. I frequently struggle to get my ideas on to my textiles and had settled on using abstract imagery…..I’d completely forgotten about the advantages of tracing…..this is a quick overview of how to use tracing to move images into line/mark-making/tone for realistic interpretations of the world around you. ”

“Loved the concept of using several different techniques in one Tracing. I have been using Tracing just for transferring and not as a creative medium. Thanks so much for opening my Design Mind to wonderful new ideas!”

“Excellent variety of marks”

“Very clear presentation! A simple way to get started in your sketchbook and take the fear out of drawing. Susoect will help build confidence. ”
