What is Scraperboard?
Scraperboard is heavily coated with china clay, giving a smooth surface which is then overprinted with black ink. A sharp scraper tool engraves a line through the surface ink to expose the white beneath. It offers an artistic medium which is clear and precise.
Used by illustrators and professional artists around the world, its super-smooth surface lets you to work in extremely fine detail.
