The outlines are pre-drawn, right?

I first sketch the scene onto tracing paper. It's easier to draw on, and allows me to make corrections without damaging the watercolour paper. I then transfer the completed sketch onto the watercolour paper. If I screw up the painting, it's easy to transfer the sketch to another sheet of paper, and saves me the time of having to sketch the scene all over again.
