Scratchboard

The picture I used was a picture of me that my mom took while I was hiking Mt.Liberty. I used scratch knives to scratch away the black ink to show the white paper. I chose to use this picture because I thought it was a very interesting picture. I used a high horizon line to make my artwork more interesting. One thing that bothers me about my scratchboard is in the top left corner, I scratched too deep and ripped the board.
