According to Twyla Tharp scratching in the process of brainstorming thoughts and ideas for a creative project. Scratching is a method in which artists spark small ideas that can develop and "open doors."Out of the many suggestions that Tharp gives for scratching the methods I can see myself using are reading, everyday conversation, other people's handiwork, and listening to my mentors and using their paradigms. all of my methods of scratching contribute and are the beginning of my final piece.
In my studio work, my form of scratching is listening to the conversation around me from my peers and sometimes models. For me scratching is also listening to music, reading poetry or reading a good book, visiting museums and galleries, and taking in the ideas of my teachers and friends.
