Course Description:
Scraperboard or Scratchboard is a form of direct engraving where the top dark surface is scratched off to reveal the white chalk layer underneath. It produces an effect similar to an engraving. Many different tools can be used to make marks and textures to achieve all tones between black and white. Scraperboard can also be coloured once the design is finished. We will try out different makes of pre-coated scraperboard and also use blank white scratchboard to make our own panels.
