hatching - a row of lines, all facing in the same direction. More dense and
concentrated in the areas that appear darker.
contour-hatching - follows the contour, or curve or outline, of the object. In this case,
the hatching is rounded to match the shape of the circle.
stippling - placing many, many dots on the paper to indicate shading. Probably the
most time consuming of all the methods, but creates some neat effects.
Shading makes a flat circle shape become an illusion of a three dimensional ball 3D form.
Ink drawing techniques and patterns show changes in value to define a shape or imply texture.

Line Drawings hatching is all about spacing the use of negative space!
Notice lines on dog follow contour of face this is cross contour lines
Lines do more than connect two points! . Lines can also form patterns for implied textures and value
changes. The patterns can be combinations of line, geometric shapes or inspired from nature. You can
adjust the depth of tone and the roughness of texture by varying the density and distribution of the dots.

Ink Drawing Lesson (more fun than making value scales & more creative too!)
Objectives: (check yourself)
Demonstrate understanding of how ink drawing techniques are used. (yes, you are using ink)
Use line to make value changes in a drawing. Basic strokes include hatching, cross-hatching,
contour-hatching, scumbling, and stippling,
Create and use repetitive lines/patterns of your own to achieve contrasting patterns and variety.
Be creative with the negative space.
Process:
1. Animal reference photo (homework)
2. Contour drawing - Simple shape; extend past 2-3 edges
3. Divide up spaces map it out
4. Fill in with lines hatching, stippling, patterns be creative!
5.
Which silhouette merely exists in its surroundings? Which one seems to be controlling its environment?
Objective: using pen or marker; draw an imaginary space a virtual reality using a silhouette & a variety of lines to
define the space. Consider using different drawing techniques to fill in the spaces stippling, hatching, crosshatching,
contour hatching, scumbling, & random hatching. You may choose to use patterns to fill some spaces.
