Description
This scratchboard piece is an award winner having won the professional sponsor award at the Rochester, NH fair. The original scratchboard of this piece took roughly 100 hours to create. The image was created by scratching through the black outer layer of a clayboard into white clay. The scratch marks in the white clay were then painted with clayboard inks producing the final image.

Fantastic scratchboard; very impressive!
Robert Goudreau replied:
Thanks Lynn. This was one of my more complex endeavors and took roughly 100 hours to produce. It won a sponsored award at the local country fair a few years ago. The original sold at a gallery. I think we all have been inspired by the great and varied talent of the ISSA members.

Robert, you are an amazing artist. I can't believe all your works are scratchboard! I will introduce you to my sister, Dawn Senior-Trask, who also does some scratchboard work. Something like this one can absolutely be incredibly time-consuming. It is worth it for the viewer. I love your work in general, and this one feels familiar and comfortable and beautiful. Fantastic, vote & fave.
