Observational Drawing

Hatching & Cross Hatching

Hatching/Cross Hatching is a shading technique used to

describe shade, tone and form. A wide range of dry media

applications can be employed in colour or greyscale including

pencil, pen & ink, pastel and charcoal. It is also widely used

in printmaking techniques, in particular intaglio etching.

Hatching is the initial single lines applied to describe basic

tones.

Cross Hatching is the addition of lines which cut across the

initial hatched lines to further describe shade, tone and form.

The artist achieves a wide range of effects by increasing and

decreasing pressure upon the implement being used and

through expressive mark making in different directions.
