hatching
(redirected from Cross-hatch)

    Also found in: Wikipedia 0.06 sec.

hatching

In drawing, the creation of areas of tone or shadow with a series of parallel lines. In cross-hatching the lines are then crossed by other parallel lines. It is often used to block in an area quickly and effectively.

It is also found in the form of brushwork used in tempera painting and fresco to convey a depth or gradation of tone otherwise difficult to obtain in these media.
