SCRATCHBOARD... I first learned of scratchboard from a David Hockney book where he said he used it for an illustration for a newspaper, in his art student days.  These drawings are made on scratchboard, using Ess Dee British Scraper Board. The drawings are usually figures and some sort of environment.  I like this medium because they remind me of etchings.
