While Chicagoan Lisa S. Goesling has spent her life creating art, she discovered scratchboards (boards made of clay and India ink) while undergoing a cancer diagnosis in 2006. The idea that adversity teaches us to turn the negative into a positive is a great analogy for transforming these black boards into thriving works of art. Her past careers in graphic design and art direction continue to influence her art by incorporating the fundamentals of design, such as composition, pattern, texture, contrast, line, etc. Using nature as her muse, Goesling scratches fine lines into a layer of ink until meticulous images appear in the clay.
