Hatching Crash Course

What is hatching?

Hatching is a technique where parallel lines are used to create dark and light values, or shading effects. When lines are overlapped at an angle to one another, it is called cross-hatching.

What is it used for?

Hatching is a beautiful and efficient way to give your drawings life, depth, and character.

Hatching is a timeless drawing technique used by the Old Masters and beloved by artists and illustrators to this day!

About the course

This course consists of 4 recordings from live Zoom meetings. You will be led through various hands-on drawing exercises, exploring the hatching technique in pencil, ink, colored pencil, and layered with watercolors.
