Ink is beloved by illustrators, comic book artists and designers alike. It allows you to create crisp, precise linework or build up depth with delicate washes. Guided exercises will walk you through how to show a range of lighting conditions. Experiment with mark-making techniques such as cross-hatching and stippling.
