Tracing Art: Christmas

Fill in the white lines with black ink to produce bold and beautiful artworks.

If you're looking to improve your skills in drawing, this innovative method is a great place to start. Line artworks are shown in white lines set against a coloured background. All you need to do is to follow the lines with an ink pen or fine liner of an appropriate thickness to complete the image. As well as revealing a hitherto 'hidden' picture, the process will show you how to create the effects in the image and help you to refine your skill in handling a pen and creating different effects.

This book contains 45 elegant drawings with a Christmas theme, from Santa and his reindeer, to Christmas trees, gifts, decorations and gingerbread. All offer the opportunity to practise a range of artistic skills as you fill in the line work. Just choose one that appeals and start to boost your drawing prowess.
