Whats a sensible way to manage my diverse drawings?

0

I use 9 x 12 pads of tracing paper: mostly because I like its tooth. I also like being able to flip a sketch over to refine or to trace over/redo onto another sheet. Tracing paper pads are so minimally glued that the sheets just about fall out by themselves: over the course of a pad, I file drawings I like toward the back and keep the whole thing together with an alligator clip. Eventually, I file individual sheets that I want to save into a pressboard folio and discard the rest. I used to save everything but gave up in favor of having free space in my studio. I’ve noticed a problem with images on the back side showing through. The cure for that is placing a sheet of black paper behind the drawing and the lid of the scanner (don’t try it with tracing paper, though).
