The International Society of Scratchboard Artists working in the medium of scratchboard will exhibit exceptional works of art this MAY 4TH –MAY 31ST at the Middletown Arts Center. Opening Reception is Friday, May 4th, 6:00 – 9:00 pm.
Participating artists represent 21 states and six other countries including Australia, Canada, China, Germany, Iran, and Switzerland. Many of these artists, including those from the highest Master level, will be attending the opening reception, a juried show where awards will be given to the best work.
Each artwork is created by meticulously engraving into a board coated in white clay and then covered with black india ink. Line by line, the ink is removed with a sharp tool creating contrasting values and a high level of detail as the clay becomes exposed. This process has roots going back to the 1800’s and is now making a comeback in graphic design and fine art.
