Single hatching involves drawing parallel lines in a single direction. It creates a uniform texture and can suggest shading and volume.

Expressive hatching uses lines that may vary in size, direction, and pressure to convey emotion or drama.

Scribble hatching uses scribbling motions to build texture and shading, often resulting in a loose, dynamic effect.

Random hatching involves lines that are placed without a specific direction or pattern. This can create a chaotic texture and is often used for expressive purposes.

Directional hatching uses lines that emphasize the directionality of a form or feature, which can guide the viewer's eye and suggest movement.

Contour hatching follows the form of the subject. This technique can add a three-dimensional effect through curved lines that mimic the shape of the subject.

Fine hatching uses very closely spaced thin lines. It creates detailed textures and subtle tonal differences.

Layered hatching involves placing several layers of hatching over one another. It can create complex textures and rich tones.

Patch hatching involves grouping lines in separate patches to create variations in texture and value.

Cross-contour hatching involves hatching lines that follow the topography of a shape, crossing over to suggest form and depth.

Linear hatching uses straight, parallel lines to create a uniform texture. It often serves as the foundation for more complex hatching techniques.
