From Spain: you are a great teacher. (I bought the book in Amazon)
thank you!!
E yo también soy español saludos desde castilla y león 😁
David M huh?

I'm so happy I stumbled upon your channel, you're so helpful! You're whole channel has taught me more than high school art 1, art 2, and art 3 has taught me! Thank you!!
Thanks so much! Glad I was able to help : )
I had a friend who taught high school art. She was not able to teach as the students' bad manners got in the way. The principal would not allow the students to be grouped by ability and the classes had too many students. I'm glad that you have You Tube and the internet!
You: start practicing drawing get good
your parents: wooh you have a gift
Lol
I seldom leave comments on videos, only on the truly exceptional and your videos are just that. I will try to keep this short. I wanted with all my heart, as teen, to be an artist. But I had really bad ADHD. I lacked the focus and patience needed to learn. I took art in high school and was heartbroken at my lack of success. I gave up that dream and turned my creativity to many forms of crafting. I am now 63 years old and over the course of my life I have learned how to overcome much of my attention deficit. I stumbled on your videos. They are perfect for me. You explain everything so clearly while simultaneously demonstrating the principles. I am going to start drawing again. I'm saving up to buy your books (I'm on disability and my income is limited,) In the meantime I will keep watching your videos and practicing what you teach. Thank you for being so generous with your videos. You have the eye and heart of an artist combined with the soul of a teacher.
I recently wanted to learn to crosshatch, but I couldn’t figure out how. This video taught me a lot and I improved really quickly! Thank you!
Alphonso, I suggest to all of my printmaking students that they should watch your videos and own your book. (pen and ink translates easily into an intaglio print.) the care you take in describing how to see and draw is amazing. any artist can benefit from your words, whatever medium they choose to work in.
Thanks so much! That means so much to me :-)
I love this! Thank you for making these and elaborating on cross hatching. I am a hand engraver and I engrave a lot of small ornamental scrollwork with chisels and shading really involves using tapered parallel lines and hatching selectively to add depth to the work. And with scroll work designs you really need to follow the contours of the growth of the plant to make it look natural and real. This helps a ton!
Alfonso, I ordered your book and it put me on my way to becoming a really good pen and ink artist! I took one class locally, then worked through your workbook and it was like magic for me, turned on all the lightbulbs I needed. Thank you, great job.
I LOVE your crosshatching tutorials, it's my favorite way to shade and it helps me focus when I have no idea on what to draw, I even made a design that's made with opposing crosshatches in my free time, wish i could show you though, keep up the vids man they're awesome
Thanks much! You can share it on fb
I can’t thank you enough for these videos ! They’ve really helped me a lot and I always come back time and time again
Yay! New Alphonso Dunn vid!
I set aside time to draw every day, and I know it is thanks to you that whenever I don't want to draw (probably avoiding my drapery practice) or am just brain dead I practice basic shapes and parallel lines. I'm finding that I'm improving even on my bad days! (and on my good days I work through your book, so thanks for that as well!)
verywelcome! and thanks so much for supporting it too :-)
This is truly great art. You are one of my fave artists, Alphonso Dunn. I am going to purchase your book ASAP!
So glad to have found your channel! I'm just beginning pen & ink drawing so this is a real win. I ordered your book yesterday and subscribed to your channel. Thank you for taking the time to help so many of us!
the way you explain the plane cross-hatching made a lightbulb go off over my head. I'm now going to make every thing in my home covered in cross hatching. thank you.
You have a lot of passion about cross strokes! Thank you for making this!
Thank you so much for your video tutorials, I've learned so much in just a few hours. I'm looking forward to receiving your books! You are a gifted artist and teacher!
Really useful tips as always Alphonso. The tutorial format is really great. Keep up the good work!
Thank you thank you THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video. It might be years old now, but it helped at least one more person. Your emphasis on consistency and “enhancing the form” gave me a mental breakthrough. Especially seeing it applied in the preview/next-video clip at the very very end. I just couldn’t figure it out before, it wouldn’t look right. Thank you so much.
Just found your channel and I am obsessed. Thank you for showing your talent and sharing your knowledge!
Tus videos son geniales, gracias por compartir tu conocimiento Alphonso Dunn
Awesome work @Alphonso Dunn!
I have just purchased your book as I was so impressed by your youtube videos. I look forward to learning more about pen and ink drawing using water colour as well. Thank you for your great instructions.
thanks so much! that support means alot : )
Alphonso Dunn do you sell at bookstores like barns and Nobel.
Thank you for demonstrating and teaching a simple concept of cross hatching. It was very helpful!
I am an art teacher and you are awesome at explaining this to students! Thanks for providing this resource.
I love the way you break it down. Thank you!
Thanks
learnin this because im looking into abstract art with my fountain pen using rods, curves, and circles. im brand new to this medium and so this helps a lot! good stuff
As someone who once did a lot of stipple drawings and crosshatching your video was still engaging and reminded me of basic things that only come to mind when the ink hits the paper. I'm sure you've saved me time. Thanks so much. ;) ... even your hands are expressive and nice to look at. Take care, Alphonso!
Thanks this has been a wonderful guide, the importance of form indication is something that I underestimated but by making demonstrative simple forms I really see how it can put an otherwise good drawing out of its rails. And yeah crosshatching is wonderfully versatile, like I also like the power of line density to darken areas
Thanks a lot....you have really helped me understand how to cross hatch and what's a better way of using it with my Architecture drawings
I always hoped you'd write a book and now I'm awaiting it's delivery with anticipation. I like the non-speeded up tutorials too. I am envious of your ability and inspired by it! Keep on keeping on!
: ) thanks so much for supporting it
Just came by to say thanks. Thanks for an amazing book such as Pen and Ink Drawing: A Simple Guide. It's been a blast reading and learning. Cheers!
Great thanks
okkkkk
This is old. Owner probably does not care enough to reply.
The most useful video on cross hatching of my life.
I just bought your book and it's so amazing! This book is the kind of book I wished WAY back in my younger age about 15 years ago to have but no buddy really made at that time. Thank you very much for making this awesome book for all to enjoy!
thanks so much for supporting it! And you're very very welcome :-)
I watch your videos regularly. But after a long break , I am getting back into sketching. Starting from basics once again with your basic videos. Thanks so much for sharing your learnings. Aids in our confidence in the right direction.
Thank you for articulating not only what to do, but the why, the thinking behind the strokes you choose.
very welcome : )
Thank you for the awesome tips and guides this really inspired me to drawing medieval engravings depicting hell, etc. Truely magnificent.
I am like super happy your channel popped on my recommendations.
thanks for all your videos man! I'm a landscape architecture student so we draw a lot and I love watching you tecniques and practising them! many thanks
glad I can help :-)
I love how you explained this!
Extremely helpful, I'm learning how to draw and create shades and this helped a lot. I'm glad I stumbled on to your channel.🥰
I just love your tutorials. Thank you, Alphonso. :)
Very welcome : )
So good to use the material itself to consult it must be a great feeling of achievement, let’s buy and draw.
Thanks for the explanation. I always wanted to understand the logic to decide how use the hatching. You didatic is amazing
Thanks for your input! I appreciate this so much because I thought this was just a bunch of random lines!
I love your enthusiasm :)
I try and sit each night and draw something or practice something. I find drawing from memory the hardest, I need more practice in cross hatching to show where the light it coming from... arggggg its hard lol
Forever a huge fan and many thanks
Rene'
Thanks so much Rene! I will continue this series on crosshatching to address some of those issues. Dont worry :-)
I just ordered your book. I don’t know where to start? I Love cross-hatching. Thank You for your help.

My favorite Art teacher.
Gracias por los subtítulos en español.
Ya lo he repetido varias veces.
Ésta técnica me encanta.
Saludos cordiales desde Costa Rica.
Woah your cross hatching is so consistent! I’m sure I’ll get there with some practice
You are a great instructor.
And I could actually understand what your saying and what you mean. It's awesome! I'm learning so much from this. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge . 💕💞💕💕💞💞
Another new way of drawing. I love using fine liner.
Alphonso, I've bought Kindle edition from Amazon as I couldn't find hardcopy at my place in store/online. I've been watching your videos in parallel and started drawing with pen. You're a great inspiration!
Thanks so much
Hey bud, I just stumbled upon your page and couldn't be more thrilled! I've only recently discovered my minor art talent. I've always loved art but never applied myself.. I'm learning sketching and painting and you sir inspire me. Thank you!
Glad I could help : )
this was massively helpful. thanks!
This helped me so much
Right now I’m my high school art class we’re supposed to be learning cross hatching as we do an assignment on it yet my teacher didn’t exactly explain how to use crosshatching she just showed us the assignment, briefly explained what to do and sent us on our way
This video made it so much easier, thank you!
Glad I could help : )
Excellent teaching, thank you!
We are currently working on crosshatching in my art course, and I was struggling to understand it. But, THIS helped me so much! So thank you 💛
Very welcome! Glad it helped
I never understood why cross hatching is used so much.. now that I switched from pencil to pen I understand. It’s also just a good warm up and stress reliever lol. Great vid man 🤘
Yippee dippy do!!! I just received your book today!! Much larger than I expected!! I look forward to getting started from the beginning in an organized manner (rather than tracking down the appropriate video). Also looking forward to all the extras that you've detailed in the book (missed in the videos)!! Thanks much for a great resource!!!
Lauri
very welcome and thanks so much for supporting it :-)
Your art is amazing!
Look forward to each video and love your book. Drawing with 6 kids 9-13 years old and using your book as a reference. Now when I ask "what is your favourite medium", they all answer "pen and ink" Cheers!

Just ordered the Book Alphonso! Can't wait :)
Thanks so much for supporting it 😊
Your book is amazing your such an inspiration thanks for helping my art skills out👍
very welcome :-)
Very cool!! as allways, a great tutorial :)
thanks much
Amazing video! Not only did it improve my hatching, but it hyped me up to immediately get working. Also, what pen did you use in this?
Thank you for this 😁 Cross-hatching used to make me cross-eyed but i feel better about it now
I don't know why, but I find crosshatching to be so darn complicated for me.. :(
nothing that practice can fix, yeah sounds redundant but it works
I will be doing more videos on this dont worry
I agree
Me too :c
squappa keep practicing
