1.A pencil is a wooden rod
enclosing a substance for
marking. It is usually made
of graphite and not lead,
contrary to the popular
belief.
• Graphite pencils are the most common
ones used by artists.
• Charcoal is a stick or pencil made from
wood burned until it reaches the right
consistency for drawing.
• Colored pencils are similar to the typical
pencil but have a colored pigment core
enclosed by wood.
• Mechanical pencils, also known as
automatic pencils, are enclosures that
hold and extend sticks of graphite with a
push of a button.

1.Hatching is the most basic
shading technique used with both
pen and pencil. It is done by making
parallel vertical, horizontal, or
diagonal lines. In making hatch lines,
make sure they are parallel or do not
intersect. Also, the closer they are
drawn with other lines, the darker the
value will be, and vice versa.

2.Cross hatching involves
drawing lines that intersect.
They may intersect with other
lines from different angles. The
more lines that intersect with
each other, the darker the
value will be and vice versa.
