Tracing (art)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A man using a light table to trace an image.

Tracing is the act of copying an image or work of art by drawing over its lines, especially through the use of transparent overlays.[1]

Tracing can provide a way for a person to develop their artistic skills for example when it comes to learning anatomy. It is however frowned upon in many art circles.
