Mrs. Morgan's Examples
STEPS
1. Draw a sketch the same size as your scratchboard.
2. Put the sketch on top of the scratchboard with something giving underneath :
magazine, newspaper, etc.
3. Trace over sketch with a ballpoint pen (or a wooden pencil).
4. Pull off sketch when done to reveal the indented transfer underneath.
This should give you a confident start to start scratching...
5. Use the larger pointed objects for thicker outlines &
smaller pointed objects for details or things in distance.
*Use techniques like hatching, cross hatching, scribbling, and contour line.

We just reviewed the ink techniques used to create VALUE.
These can be used to show visual TEXTURE.
USE SCRATCHBOARD TECHNIQUES
Reference from HERE
Apply these same value scale techniques with scratchings.
Think in reverse, The more you do, the lighter it is.
She has some tips...
CHOOSE YOUR OBJECT/SUBJECT:
Pick something that has a lot of texture or shading.
The more you take off with technique, the better.
Choose a subject you are comfortable and familiar with. Maybe something I have taught you this year:
Pumpkins, Mushrooms, Jellyfish, Cactus, Hot Air Balloons,
Doodling, Contour line, Optical Illusion...Here are some ideas...
-Draw your idea on a piece of white computer paper.
-Put white paper on top of your black scratch paper with a magazine underneath.
-Go over lines on your white paper drawing again, making them transfer by indention onto
black scratch art paper.
- Use the white paper to keep under your hand so oil does not get onto your black paper.
(oil will seal the paper and make it hard to scratch off)
- Begin scratching details and texture until you are done.
Fransisco (7th grade) planned on manilla paper & transfered it to the black paper.
The more detail and scratching you do, the better it looks.
