I utilized the scratchboard a bit more than usual for my new Graveyard piece. The result is a highly detailed stipled foreground of face, hand and snake, and a more stylized background and beard.

The background style is a definite nod to one of the masters of ink and shadow, Charles Burns. His approach involves an economy of line (or rather white space) and habit of depicting objects as if they were back-lit. My old mentor, Barron Storey, had also introduced me to this approach at one point. Freehanding the text with the scratch tool rounded out the aesthetic.
