illofriday...night....


so here i am, another week another illo....and yet another new twist. this weeks topic was the perfect time for me to pull out the scratchboard. i had only delved into this medium a few times, so i decided to get some tools and some boards and try my hand at it again. i really enjoy this one and it was a great idea for messing around with some different textures. this piece starts playing one of my fave 311 songs in my head everytime i see it, 'thank you lucky stars.' what a perfect fit right?! enjoy.

I've never tried scratchboard but think it would be fun scratching! I really like the moon's face .. his brow, eye, nose, top lip AND bottom lip! The scratching is very effective and you have done a great job of it!
