I am a scratchboard artist. I use black scratchboard, by itself or with other mediums, and I use white scratchboard with many different mediums. I use to paint in oils, but I have been concentrating my energies on scratchboard for the last five years or so.

This forum looks like a friendly place.

Hello Diana Lee!
This is a friendly place with lots of really friendly and talented artists.
I've always been interested in trying scratchboard, but the fact that it seems so definite and unforgiving has kept me away. I'll have to go looking for your work...have you posted here yet?

I ran into a glitch and had to reregister under a new name.

Hello Mike, scratchboard is more forgiving than you might think. Especially working with a white board where you can scrape off a mistake and start over (it's cleaner than erasing). Black scratchboard is easily corrected by reinking and though the correction looks visable it disappears when it is sprayed.

I'm not sure where I should post my work since there is no scratchboard section, but my avitar is a color scratchboard, though it is ever so small.

Welcome, Diana,

We do have a collage/mixed media forum. Sounds as if at least some of your scratchboard art is mixed media, so you could post it there. The the pure scratchboard, you could either post with the mixed media forum or maybe on the drawing forum. Your avatar makes me want to see more of your work.

Sorry you had a glitch with the message board. If you continue to have trouble, you can contact me by e-mail at artistsnetwork@fwpubs.com (I'm the message board administrator).

Enjoy the message board,

Holly
