Artist's Comments

This was done for a class project a little while ago. I still really like it so I thought I should put it up.

This piece was done with scratch board, it's a kind of board that is completely black and you have to scratch away with a quill pen to form details. There is not much room for mistakes with scratch board thats for sure.

Yes this is me.....yaay.......O_O;

For some reason I find it so much easier working on a dark medium and adding in the lighter tones for this kinda stuff. Like... I like to cover the whole piece of paper in dark pencil, then use an eraser to draw, adding in the details with a thinner pencil.

But omg, this is lovely! Very impressive!!

Wow, that's awsome, and it sounds real difficult too. I wish I could do something like it.

I've heard of scratch board when I was in high school and taking art but I never got to use it. I've done prints with large squares of plastic that you had to scratch into but never anything like what you've done here.

I love the detail, it's really amazing I love how you did the eyes. The whole thing is very well done. I love it. :3

Masterfully done self-portrait. The shading and the rendering are remarkable.
