The Stroke of Hatching

Today's we learn about tips to stroke using pen or pencil.

In this section some tips on using your pen or pencil to draw and shade. The good companion to "provide shade and" education is.

Here's a very simple example illustrates the basic way with pencil rendering. "Slinky" stroke (as it calls Anthony Ryder, in his book High Life Drawing) a unique opportunity to describe a particular type of pencil. Ryder called for the "Sneak" because it goes back and forth, back and forth, just like a child toy slinky.

The basis of many processing and shading with pencil and ballpoint pen is. It is as simple! If you are familiar with the preparation of this time, not practice it in your sketchbook. It's fun!


Here's an illustration showing the "crosshatching" of a pencil stroke. It's very simple principle—you just do the "slinky" thing in several different directions, one over the other! (I have put arrows over the different directions of my pencil strokes.) Each different direction adds more tone to the shading, and gets it progressively darker, and darker.


Some more examples of pencil strokes. The example on the left shows how a dark dark tone looks. One bears down a little harder with their pencil, and gets the darkest tone they can while using the "slinky" stroke. They do this going several different directions. VoilĂ ! A very dark (even black) tone.

The example on the right is a more strict crosshatch. It isn't so much of a "slinky" stroke (one lifts the pencil up after making each line) but the same principle applies.
