Description:
Scratch art is a unique art form using scratch board and wooden/metal tools. This class will consist of the history and development along with creation of their own scratch art piece.
The original design is lightly scratched into the black ink surface using very delicate tools, concentrating on lights and darks until the desired effect is achieved. Each image is literally thousands of scratches allowing for precise detail and control of lines, enabling the artist to bring the piece to life. Instructor Jessica Stoots is an art therapist, teacher and tutor. All supplies included.
The class will be held in the Y Center Arts Classroom.
