“Instead of canvas I use a scratchboard which is a hard 1/8th inch thick Masonite board of white kaolin clay that’s sprayed over with black India ink. Uusing a pen-like stylus with a metal nib, I start to scratch my drawing onto the black board. To add color I use bluish ink mixed with sepia or specialty inks made just for scratchboards. Scratchboard art requires patience. I never hurry and I believe my discipline is reflected in both the composition and detail of each piece I create.”
