By enhancing the contrast this way, you will also remove many incidental smudges and make your sketch look crisp and clean.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is Trace Art illegal?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Tracing is a common art-making technique that is as old as time. As a technique, it is not good or bad. However, tracing (or any copying) is illegal when it is used to violate another artist&#8217;s copyright, a person&#8217;s right of publicity, or trademarked designs such as logos.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How can I trace a picture on my computer?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XaII2VicSpA\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I use Google to trace an image?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Google&#8217;s reverse image search is a breeze on a desktop computer.
