A mode of execution in engraving, drawing, and miniature painting, in which shading is produced by lines crossing each other at angles more or less acute; called also crosshatching
(aka hachure, French) Creating tonal or shading effects with closely spaced parallel lines When more such lines are placed at an angle across the first, it is called cross-hatching Artists use this technique, varying the size, closeness and other qualities of the lines, most commonly in drawing, linear painting, and engraving
A series of parallel lines used as shading in prints and drawings When two sets of crossing parallel lines are used, it is called crosshatching
Fine series of parallel lines used to represent shadows in a drawing or engraving when two sets of crossing parallel lines are used it is called crosshatching
Repeated strokes of an art tool producing clustered lines (usually parallel) that create values In "cross" hatching, similar lines pass over the hatched lines, following a different direction and usually resulting in darker values
The building up of an effect of tone by a series of close parallel lines Crosshatching consists of a series of parallel lines, crossed by others at right angles Usually a technique used in etching
