Hey everybody, so today I thought we could do something a bit more interactive! Now there are tons of tutorials out there on YouTube and on other websites that artists could use, so I'll go ahead and link them down below in the description box if you need and don't forget to follow me on the socials down below here. If you want to share your artwork or just chat with other artists, now just a quick note I am going to be using my sketchbook. It's just a basic, straf, more sketchpad. If you don't have a sketchbook, don't worry, that's totally fine. Grab any sheet of printer paper, a post-it note, a pencil, a pen, honestly anything that you can write on and with, you'll be fine. Now this isn't going to be an elaborate project, but what we're learning today can be expanded upon in future projects. So without further ado, let's begin. There are different types of strokes and today I'll be practicing hatching. There's long hatching, short hatching, uneven hatching and cross hatching. For this video I am following along with Alphonse Ardon's book, Pen and Ink Drawing, a simple guide. I find it super useful and I definitely recommend picking up a copy. In the book Alphonse Ardon only covers different types of strokes, but he also provides different techniques to help you acquire the stylistic looks you're drawing for. As always, it's been a pleasure, thank you so much for stopping by. I hope this video helped you out. If you have any comments or questions, leave them in the comment section down below. As always, happy arding, I'll see you in the next video. Bye.
