Douglas Smith is an illustrator whose specialty is working in the fascinating medium of scratchboard. I first wrote about him in 2013, and I thought iw would be interesting to check back into see some additional work.
He uses the wonderfully graphic nature of the medium, both in black and white and in color, to illustrate a variety of subjects.
There is a character to scratchboard, a close relative of pena nd ink (whith which it is often combined) but with its own engaging qualities.
Smith does not appear to have a dedicated website, instead relying on two portfolios of his work on the site of his artist’s rep, Richard Solomon.
