WILLIAM HOBDAY

However, because of the focus on detail and character, pen & ink drawing can be very rewarding. A good artist can create a range of work from photo-realism to total abstraction and everything else in between. There is a great deal of versatility of pen & ink as an artist media... William Hobday lives in East Sussex where most of his pen and ink fine art is created... To give an idea of how detailed his pen and ink drawings are, William does not use 'cross hatching', a time-saving method of filling in background or other blank drawing space. Crosshatching is when the pen and ink artist creates the tones by drawing lots of parallel lines, but the technique is often used as a filler.
