Key Terms
cross-hatching, stippling, blending, 3D, tone, light,
medium, dark, shadow, highlight
Tonal Shading – Activity 1
You will be experimenting with the following three techniques to create tone:
Cross-hatching
Layers of lines are drawn in several directions. The more layers are used, the darker the
area becomes.
Blending
Different pressures are used when shading to achieve light, medium and dark tones.
Using your finger tip to gently blend and smooth the graphite achieves a smooth blend; a
rubber can also be used to blend and add highlights.
Stippling
Layers of dots are built up to give the appearance of light, medium and dark tones within
an object or drawing.
