hatching

Keeping up the practice! Thank you for looking at my drawing!

An unicorn and friend of mine, his name’s Ermete. I love hatching.

Crosshatching was used to build up the shadows. It's probably my favourite drawing technique. Works best with pen and ink. This is the cover image for one of my children's picture books.

Biking is my second love. And I should do more images like this as my imagination flies when I bike.

Rapidograph Pens used to create this image with lots of crosshatching. Drawn from my head.

Per special request :) this is my method for crosshatching. Feel free to comment and share your ideas.

An image for an upcoming poetry book, using lots of crosshatching with Rapidograph pens.

I have found my new love in playing with the Glass Ink Pen where I can easily achieve specific lines that are hard to make with a regular pen. Here I am working to gain confidence in my permanent line work where I can't erase every second. I am also working to gain experience in cross hatching. which is very difficult.

Still having a difficult time with crosshatching. '(ᗒᗣᗕ)՞ Why....Why you so difficult!!

Crosshatching and stippling practice with a ink dip pen. Requires immense patience.

My first attempt at cross-hatching with ink.

I wanted to doodle something with hatching.... I have no clue what the picture shows and how to do hatching right, but I had some fun

Quick doodle of a bee as I watch them outside on the cherry blossoms.

I was tired of carrying around a bunch of Microns. I want one or two refillable pens so I started with buying a new Lamy AL-Star Fountain Pen. I love it. I got the medium nib and am able to get a nice range of line width from it. This and maybe a fine nib and I'll be all set for a travel kit. This is the first page I drew with it.

From my main story

In this captivating cross-hatched pencil shading, a tranquil village scene comes to life. The intricate strokes create a harmonious blend of light and shadow, showcasing the serene beauty of rural life. Thatched roofs, winding pathways, and towering trees are meticulously detailed, inviting viewers to step into the peaceful simplicity of village existence. The gentle interplay of shades and textures evokes a sense of nostalgia and calm, capturing the essence of a timeless village story.

Draped in delicate pencil strokes, this artwork elegantly portrays a historic city gate, standing as a timeless sentry to myriad untold stories. Each shaded contour brings forth the intricate details of the gate's architecture, echoing the urban landscape of a bygone era. The deft use of monochrome evokes a nostalgic journey through the annals of time, where every shadow and highlight adds to the depth and texture of this piece. This mesmerizing blend of artistry and history invites viewers to step into the past and embrace the serene splendor of the city's storied gateway.

I wasn't sure if she was being shy or hatching some mischief.

This is an old piece I did for a shading assignment in high school art class. 3 techniques of shading used: tonal value, hatching and cross hatching

I just started cross hatching thanks to @apricotjams and I loved it and this is my first cross hatched drawing

Trying my hand at hatching with an illustration of my mother

ink on paper. Here’s another demon baby. This doodle in particular is one of my favorites. I’m looking forward to “digitizing” it through Procreate on my iPad. I used Micron pens for this doodle, and for the hatching/crosshatching. More doodles and creatures to come

Had some fun doing some crosshatching. Wanted to see if it would give the trees more texture instead of just leaving it blank.

Developing my style , I love stippling and cross hatching so thought I’d give it a go!
