Learn the best way how to trace an image or photo, or transfer a drawing easily. You can use tracing paper, graphite paper, a lightbox, a projector, and various other methods and techniques to copy an image. The best way to trace is using a projector. You can position the projector closer or further away to resize the picture and is very easy and simple.
The most basic way to trace is by simply placing a sheet of paper over the image you want to copy. The image will barely show through, but it might be sufficient enough to work. You can also place it over a computer monitor or other screen and the light will shine through making it more visible and easier to trace.
Another way is by taping the image to a window and place a piece of paper over that. The light from outside will shine through allowing you to easily draw over and trace it. You can even use an artist's lightbox or light pad which is a box with a light inside that shines through a translucent surface where you place your image and draw your artwork. If you don't have an artist's lightbox you can create your own using any box and placing a lamp or other light source inside it and a pieces of plexiglass or other translucent surface on-top of it.
You can use Tracing paper because it is translucent and allows you to see the image below. There are many ways you can use tracing paper with your art. You can simply place it over the image and draw the details, then flip it over and redraw the lines. The graphite from the surface will transfer onto the paper beneath. It will be a reverse image, but you can also just scribble graphite on one side and then use pressure to transfer it by drawing on the other side.
They make graphite paper specifically for this case, but if you don't have graphite paper, you can just scribble all over the back of a piece of paper and then place an image over it and trace it- the graphite will transfer onto the page below. You can also use charcoal instead since that is darker.
Another way to trace is to print out an image that is very light and then draw over the shapes and details, or you can even press down on an image with a hard tool to create an imprint into the paper below, and then draw over that.
Another way is to flip an image up and down over your paper or canvas, and visualize where the details lay on the paper. You can do this with tracing paper to make it even easier since you can see through that.
You can even use a grid to help track where everything is positioned. Otherwise, you can just use your observation and visualization skills and measure the proportions and interpret it that way.
