Artist's Statement:
the idea was to replicate a realistic photo with scratchboard. For this I chose my cat, Fern, because animals look really cool in scratchboard.
I used scratchboard and various tools to create fur texture and carpet, giving a realistic impression.
I was going to do more of the photo at first, but then that was too hard, so I cropped it to minimize the excess.
