What is the difference between hatching and crosshatching?
1 Answer

The difference between hatching and crosshatching lies in the nature of these two drawing techniques. Hatching is the process of differentiating light and dark areas by adding lines. On the other hand, cross-hatching is when an artist creates cross-hatched lines over one another to deepen the shading effect. Shop a variety of drawings and other fine art on 1stDibs.
