SynopsisThis volume begins with a look at the history of scratch art from petroglyphs, sgraffito and scrimshaw to the state of the medium today, with an emphasis on how surfaces, tools and techniques have enlarged the artistic vocabulary of artists working with scratchboard. The main focus of the book is an in-depth, step-by-step description of the three basic scratchboard techniques: the traditional scratching onto an ink-blacked surface; India ink on a white clay surface; and acrylics on a white clay surface. A final section presents a wide variety of other media that can be used on a clay surface, including airbrush, gouache, watercolour, casein, coloured pencil, tempers, coloured inks, lithography inks, encautic, oils, and printing techniques such as monotypes, offset lithography, serigraphs, and those that are computer generated., Artists looking for a fresh approach to their work will enjoy this rich resource offering complete instruction on the dynamic art form known as scratchboard. The book outlines the long history of the art, from petroglyphs, sgraffito, and scrimshaw to the state of the medium today, pointing out new surfaces, tools, and methods. Basic techniques are explored, such as scratching on an ink-blacked surface and applying ink or acrylics on a white clay surface. Other methods are reviewed: airbrush, gouache, watercolor, oils, tempera, and colored pencils.
