These tutorials have a traceable in the instructions and video and require you printing out a template to transfer to your canvas. You can also hand draw the template if you wish to but Tracie does not demonstrate drawing techniques in these lessons.
FYI, the “Jolly Santa Claus” and this “Jolly Mrs. Claus” painting look so cute together!! I love how the black and gold backgrounds look next together (however you can do a black background for Mrs. Claus too if you prefer).
You can find the tutorial for the Mr. Santa Claus here.

This is an easy level painting that uses a traceable template of the ice skate drawing. Templates are included and sized for multiple canvas sizes.
