Scratch Board Artwork

I always have liked the look of a scratch board illustration.

When I was in art school. This was years before the computer was

even thought of as an art tool.

The students were required to do several scratch board drawings.

This Bulldog was one that I did in art school back in 1964.

When I was an art director at an ad agency

( long before computers were considered to be used as an art tool)

We had a home builder client that had a sub-division out in the

country. They wanted to have some ads showing what

your neighbors would be if you lived out in the country.

These were three of the scratch board drawings I did

for the different ads.

What I have found working as an artist,

No matter what art you have done your past experience

is always helpful in doing something new in art.

When they wanted some animal drawn and be the

featured illustration of the ad. I remembered what

I had learned in art school.
