ReNae -

There is a low-tech solution to overlays. If you can print out a copy of your image that is the exact size of the image on your canvas, art supply stores sell graphite transfer paper. You could either trace key outlines directly onto your canvas, or mark critical "landmarks".

I find often I get too caught up in making the technology work, when often there is a simple solution that will allow me more time painting.
