  1. Scratchboard:

  2. Scratchboard: • A layer of black ink covers a thin layer of chalk or aluminum • The artist scratches away the black ink to reveal the material beneath

  3. Scratchboard Process: • Draw your image on notebook paper • Tape the drawing onto a scratchboard • Trace your drawing, so it leaves an imprint on the scratchboard • Fold back the paper (but do not remove) and begin scratching your image

  4. Technique: • The best scratchboards mimic old-fashioned wood cuts. • Gray areas are made by hatching, cross hatching, stipple, etc. • Strive for blacks, whites, and grays • The more marks you make = the lighter the value.

  5. Scratchboard should be a positive image, not a negative. Whites should be white and blacks should be black. Pencil Drawing Good Scratchboard Bad Scratchboard

  6. Maintaining black lines: • You have to scratch out and around your black lines • You scratch off silver and maintain black Rudy Cantu
