In case anyone is interested in how the sausage is made (pun intended)! I flip and print the sketch in 2 parts since it’s bigger than letter size, tape together, then tape tracing paper over and outline in pencil. Then I’ll transfer to the watercolor paper by going over the opposite side of the tracing paper, then do clean lines over those faint guides. I often do this method for certain papers because they don’t tolerate sketching and erasing well, watercolor paper gets “fuzzy” if you erase.

Thank you! I've been amazed by the sketch of yours I have and have been wondering about your process. I also inherited a bunch of art supplies and now I finally know what the sketch paper is for, very cool.
