Place a picture on a flat, smooth surface and secure it with tape.
Lay the tracing paper over it and secure it with tape.
Using a pencil, trace the picture with as much or little detail as you need.
Once you have finished tracing the picture, remove the picture from underneath the tracing paper.
Turn the tracing paper over. Place it so that the tracing is face down and the blank side of the paper is facing up.
Coat the whole blank side of the paper with graphite (lead). Do this using your pencil. To coat the blank side of the tracing paper, hold your pencil almost completely sideways with the lead touching the paper and move your pencil lead back and forth to create an even coat of gray or black surface.
Obtain a new surface, such as drawing paper, to transfer your drawing.
Place the drawing paper on a flat, smooth surface and secure it with tape.
Place the tracing paper gently on top of the drawing paper with the graphite surface face down. You may secure it in place as well.
Trace the image, with pressure, onto the drawing paper. The aim is to press hard on the lines so that the graphite transfers to the paper.
Gently remove the tracing paper when you have completed tracing the drawing. You will now have your transferred drawing on your desired surface.
