My elementary school art teacher said that learning cross hatching was reserved for when we reached 6th grade. This gave the technique a certain cachet in our minds that it was so advanced and sophisticated we needed to be more mature to learn how. I eventually taught myself how to cross hatch, when the magic year had come and gone and whoever the art teacher was at the time had not taught us.

Sadly, much of like can be like this. A friend told me once they were so disappointed when they realised they were no longer a teenager and had never had a fun day at the beach with the giant beach balls etc that were in the Coke commercials at the time! Expectations are so hard to realise! 😀

This is by far the best tutorial among all the videos I have seen! Because you have demonstrate personally how to draw a picture against the real object on the photo . The student now understand every steps you have taken in the drawing so that they can follow it. Well done ! Thanks Stephen !

Thanks David. I haven’t really watched other videos to know that the reference image is often not shown. That seems a bit pointless to me. You’d only be able to copy the lines being drawn in the video. Glad to be of help in your drawing journey. 😀

for me i know pretty much by intuition that you should almost always hatch along the surface of the form, it's how all the artists I like hatch in most of their work, so I'm surprised a lot of ppl don't know that. It probably has to do with the fact that people learn about hatching and cross-hatching way before they learn about form.

@stephentraversart Жыл бұрын
Yes, I always felt it was pretty intuitive. But apparently not. I think the lack of emphasis on form in drawing causes many problems . 😀

As a self taught art-er I have troweled the depths of pen and ink teachings on here. Just found your videos recently and can tell I'll be sticking around. It's an incredible amount of work to think through how to clearly present information, especially in a non live format - without questions from the audience being able to inform the bent of the instruction. You do a fantastic job, thank you for your efforts to this effect. I will be sharing with some fellow art-ing friends.

G-Day! Nice example of proper hatching to create greater depth of space and definition, or readability. Old masters' trick to simplify and speed up is to only focus on creating contrast near the edges of planes and foreground/background, instead of covering complete areas. Some of this economical approach used here is on the steps and the side wall.

I've been dabbling with crosshatching, but it always seemed to fall flat and I wasn't sure why. Your video really helped me realize exactly what I need to work on! In hindsight, following the underlying shapes with the hatch marks seems like such an obvious concept but for some reason I tend to forget about it when caught up in a drawing. This is one of the most helpful art instructional videos I've seen :)

It's just the technique that I came into over time because practice told me that it looked better. Your explanation is like an ah-hah moment for me, as silly as it sounds, you'd think I would have come to the conclusion of WHY. :) Thank you!

This helps so much! i really pen and ink drawings, and i have done them for a while, but i could feel that sometimes when i hatched like the first example, the picture would feel somehow confusing. The shapes would be less easy to identify, and at a glance it just felt like tone with no shape, which to be fair, it was. Seeing you demonstrate how much easier to decode the picture is with the second form of hatching, has finally convinced me that it really is better to make that extra effort for better readibility. It sounds obvious in a way, but some things just don't click right away until you see them in action. Thank you so much!

thank you sir for these tips, my sketches looks better when i introduce hatching lines as per the surface of the object (curved lines for spherical objects and straight for flat surfaces).

There are other ways as well.It’s more about having options so you can choose the one that works best for you in a given drawing. 😀

I have been illustrating since I was a kid. I loved the comic book works of more underground comics and at an eary age discovered Jean Giraude {Moebius) in a Heavy Metal Magazine and studied his techniques for years. I learned about hatching and cross hatching through Moebius and how he could portray shadow, form and even texture or a variety of materials through hatching. Amazing how it works and what you explain and teach in your lessons Stephen solidifies these techniques. It comes as second nature when deciding what angle to draw hatch lines in because of form but sometimes I start out and realize I should of started in a different angle. Watching you choose angles sometimes or almost always it seems to be relevant to the vanishing point. Any thoughts? Thanks for the video. Excellent work

Thanks for sharing. Reference to the perspective angles can work very well with architecture. I use it less often in organic forms, such as trees and natural rock formations. 😀
