Many professional artists, myself included, create our sketches on inexpensive paper so that we’re free to make mistakes, erase and change our minds without worrying about making a mess on our wood panels or expensive fine art paper. What this means is that we then have to find a way to transfer the sketch to a fine art substrate like paper, canvas or wood.

Knowing how to transfer your sketches can be really useful for a number of fine art applications, both for painting and drawing:

1. Moving a sketch created on paper onto a painting substrate like canvas or wood
2. Taking a messy sketch and making it nice and clean on a new piece of art paper
3. Re-sizing a sketch to make it larger or smaller

What we’ll cover:

In this short class, we’ll cover 5 different methods for transferring your sketch to a new substrate, including a low-tech approach for re-sizing your sketch (making it bigger or smaller) during the transfer. We’ll also unpack which methods are best for which media or fine art applications, including how to transfer your sketch for delicate applications like watercolor so that the sketch lines disappear when you paint.
