I have completed a tutorial for this technique (using "Cat's Eye II"), so if you are interested in seeing it, step by step from start to finish, click here!
This is my sixth ATC/ACEO! (Almost time to stop counting...)
"Bright Eyed & Bushy Tailed" is an original work (2.5" x 3.5") in Scratchboard, with Acrylic Paint (and a few small colored pencil accents). The technique involves scratching with an X-acto knife, and painting, numerous layers of each. Very fun, but sometimes time consuming!

Thanks to everyone who views or comments on this image - I'm having a lot of fun with this ATC/ACEO thing - I strongly recommend it for other artists, if you haven't already tried it! :)
