Sgraffito Allegories with Lil Eris of Lekka Suka

Today for the final episode of Season 4 of Cracked I’m speaking with the queen of sgraffito, the Italian word directly translated to “scratched.” Her time consuming technique of flooding a thin layer of lead based powder paint over colorful patchwork like glass pieces, and then meticulously scratching it off revealing negative space designs that come together to create elaborate and rich stories. Drawing from her experiences of her childhood and family, in her stained glass pieces Lil weaves a tail of greblins, witches, fairies and sea creatures to name just a few. Let's get into it! Join me as I crack it all wide open! For the final Patreon page drawing of the season, I'm doing a drawing of 2 names! One winner will receive the Map Mundi print + a set of greeting cards and another winner will receive a sgraffito stained glass white lily made by Lil and a set of greeting cards. The Map print is 11”x13.5” and the flower is 3.5” I'll be doing a drawing for those on September 17th.
