  1. I’m getting ready to paint this beautiful painting. Jon thanks for including the large PDF. It makes my printing so much easier. It seems I always struggle with resizing and therefore give up and don’t paint a selected tutorial because I can’t print the traceable. I only use traceables for animals and people. For the most part, I can draw but when I need a traceable, it seems always a struggle. Thanks. I’m ready to start this beautiful boy! Thanks Jon and Ginger
