Anthony Wardlow - Fox

I made an image of fox on a 7 x 5inch scratchboard, a white clay paper with a layer of black India ink. Using a stylus pen I scratched away the ink to reveal the white underneath while designing the fox. Depending on the pressure of the stylus you can get different shades of white and gray. I used a lot of heavy white lines for the fur of the fox and left a lot of the surrounding area untouched. The area around the nose and neck are untouched, giving the fox a dramatic affect.
