Brown Bunny

Out in the meadow, a brown bunny snacks on some clover. This piece is an original 5" x 7" framed scratchboard. Scratchboard is a relatively unknown medium, although it has been around since the 19th century. A kaolin clay tablet is coated with black India ink, and the artist etches into it with a variety of sharp tools to reveal their design. The revealed clay etching can be left white or further tinted with colored inks or watercolor paints. This artwork includes a solid wood floater frame in a black satin finish with sawtooth hanger. Artwork is signed on the front with the artist's pen name; on the reverse, it is titled and signed with the artist's full name. The piece has been varnished with a matte finish, and is best displayed without glazing/glass.
