In this method, the lines are parallel to each other and run along the same direction of the plane. By adjusting the distance, you can increase or decrease the darkness.
1. Linear/Parallel Hatching Drawing
An easy cross hatching drawing pattern involves the pencil strokes crossing each other. They can intersect each other at any angle. Cross hatching drawing may use multiple hatching drawing patterns
2. Cross Hatching Drawing
A contoured hatching drawing plays with light and shadow to define the form's contours. It employs curved lines, made following the subject’s natural curves. Hence, the lines will fan out from a particular point.
3. Contoured Hatching Drawing
While not officially called basket or woven, this hatching drawing technique uses short cross hatching drawing lines at an almost perpendicular angle. It is reminiscent of graphic art.
4. Basket/Woven Hatching Drawing
Tick hatching is a hatching drawing approach which uses small lines or ticks. Due to their length, you can easily increase their density, adding to the value of the composition.
5. Tick Hatching Drawing
You need to scribble for this hatching drawing technique. For this approach, you need not lift your pencil from the paper. You can darken the area by squiggling it times and again.
