This is my finished scratch board. It brought back so many memories from when I would order those rainbow mini scratch boards as a child. This was very tedious to me, theres so much detail that I didn't want to miss! I wish I didn't scratch away so much in certain areas because this piece doesn't have as much value as I wanted it to.
So this is my finished charcoal piece! As you can hopefully tell I tried to do part of the pelvic region of the skeleton and i think it was pretty successful although I don't think all parts are proportional to each other. First, we covered pieces of paper with charcoal and taped them onto a board. Afterwards, we put them up on an easel and began to draw with an eraser from observation. Value has always been difficult for me, so this is piece was a good way to practice! At first I didn't even know where to start since I've never made art by the use of erasing. But I love learning new things and seeing how I can make art with methods and tools that I would have never even thought of using.
