Drawing techniques

This pencil drawing technique is moving the pencil in small, circular motions keeping them all very compact.

• Stipping

• Scumbling

• Hatching

• Cross Hatching

This pencil drawing technique is simply marking out small lines bunched together to create fill color from further away.

• Stipping

• Scumbling

• Hatching

• Cross Hatching

This pencil technique is the most basic of all.

• Outline

• Hatching

• Cross hatching

• Scumbling

This pencil drawing technique uses the same principle as hatching, but the lines are very small, similar to tiny dashes.

• Scumbling

• Stipping

• back and forth

• Outline

We can use “tools” to measure proportions of our subject in order to improve the accuracy of what we record in our drawings.

• True

• False

• Not sure

• Maybe

It is an approach to drawing or technique that breaks the subject down into “bite-sized” pieces of visual information

• Triangular Grid

• Pixel

What drawing technique is shown in the illustration

• Grid

• Triangular Grid

• Identifying Basic Shapes, positive and negative space

• Linear Perspective

Is a drawing technique or a system that uses lines to aid the artist in creating the illusion of space in a drawing. It is a structured system that uses a vanishing point (or points) as a reference point for drawing forms.

• Linear Perspective

• Proportion

• Triangular Grid

• Grid

An alternative to using the traditional grid technique is the triangular grid technique. This technique uses far less lines but requires a bit more from the artist.

• Grid

• One point Perspective

• Vanishing Point

• Triangular Grid

It uses two vanishing points instead of one.

• One Point Perspective

• Sighting / Measuring

• Two Point Perspective

• Linear
