in my point of view or thinking process i can come up with no other solution then tracing is cheating i can understand as a beginner doing it, but being able to draw is essential to being a portrait artist, you can't trace, its cheating, hahaha... and also what is the point of this painting, you traced it exactly.. and now your copying it exactly... so that when its done, its an exact replica of the printed computer paper... thats not art, that's design
Only problem is that tracing something from a photo tends to look blocky, limbs appear wider than on the original image, and so on. OK technique for starting out, no problem, but definitely not a good thing to do long term, IMHO.
You are very skilled with detail work. This process is a good idea for those who are being introduced into painting, so even though I will not use it, I enjoyed hearing your useful commentary and watching you paint.
