Scratchboard: Tools, Textures and Technicolor!

Whether you’re a beginner anxious to give scratchboard a try, or have a lifetime of scratching behind you, this workshop is for you! The Valley Art Center is excited to have longtime, local and nationally known artist, Judy Fairley, help you expand your artistic horizons. She will introduce you to the tried and true scratchboard tools, plus a few new ones; help you express many different textures: teach how to mix repair inks and fix mistakes; instruct on how to add color to both scratchboard and clayboard; go over the do’s and dont’s of spraying to best seal and protect your work; and, finally, teach all about your framing options. Join us and enjoy becoming a lifelong scratcher!
