Petals

My grandaughter, who is starting her Junior Year at Ohio University requested a black and white floral painting to hang in her new rental house.  I decided to try Ampersand black board with white gesso underneath.  I have always wanted to try this form of scratch art and here it is.  My first attempt.  It was really fun.  The next one I do, I will use the colored ink that is used specifically for this to color parts of the scratching.  Perhaps an animal portrait because as you can see, doing hair would be a snap with scratching
