Iowa Artists Region 7 Intro To Scratchboard

What is Scratchboard?

The scratchboard technique is a two-dimensional subtractive process. It involves the use of abrasive tools to directly remove a surface layer of one value (typically dark) to expose a second layer (typically white). The values within the artwork are predominantly achieved by varying the amount of surface layer that has been scratched away or left. You will also be learning how to apply color.
