Scratch Art Leaves

Each student drew and designed a leaf in their sketchbook using zentangles. When design was approved, they filled in the back of their paper with graphite and transferred it to a small (4"x6") piece of scratch art paper (gold or silver). Using small wooden scratching tools they carefully scratched the black layer of their paper to reveal the metallic color underneath. This was the first time any of the students have used scratch art paper so I was very pleased with the results! Some of them didn't like how long it took to complete the whole process while others were begging me for more.
