PREPARATION
Use smooth side of the Stonehenge paper. Lay the line drawing on top of the paper and tape in place. Slip the graphite between the line drawing and the paper. Use a stylus to draw over the lines transferring to the surface, not too heavy or too light.
COLOR PENCIL TIPS
Pencil with circular motion and light touch. Make sure to keep the pencil sharpened. The sharpened tip can cover the mountains and valleys on the paper.
When blending with odorless mineral spirits, load the spirits into the brush, then remove the excess on a paper towel. Excess spirits could melt the applied pencil too much.
