Dots, tangles, dashes
- Beyond hatching lies a whole vocabulary of marks — each with its own texture and speed.
- Stippling 点画 builds tone from dots: dense reads dark, sparse reads light.
- Scribble 乱线 marks are fast tangles — lively, good for fur, foliage, energy.
点、线团、短划
- 排线之外还有一整套笔触词汇——每种都有自己的质感和速度。
- 点画(stippling)用点建立色调：密集读作深，稀疏读作浅。
- 乱线(scribble)是快速的线团——生动，适合皮毛、树叶和能量。
Name that mark · 说出这个笔触的名字
Sort each description by the mark system it describes. · 根据所描述的笔触系统对每个描述进行分类。
Stippling builds darker tone by ____. · 点画法通过____构建更深色调。
Dot density = value. · 圆点密度=明度。
Additive and subtractive
- Marks can be additive 加法 (putting material on) or subtractive 减法 (lifting it off with an eraser).
- An eraser dragged through graphite leaves a light stroke — a mark in reverse.
- Dashes, ticks, and broken marks suggest texture without outlining every detail.
加法与减法
- 笔触可以是加法(additive)（把材料加上去）或减法(subtractive)（用橡皮提走）。
- 橡皮从石墨里拖过，留下一道亮笔触——反向的笔触。
- 短划、勾线和断续笔触暗示质感，而不必勾出每个细节。
An eraser can make marks, not just fix mistakes. · 橡皮擦可以制造痕迹，而不仅仅是修正错误。
Subtractive marks are drawn with the eraser. · 减法痕迹是用橡皮擦绘制的。
Putting material on is additive; lifting it off is . · 添加材料是加法；去除材料是。
Additive vs subtractive marks. · 加法与减法痕迹。
The four-ways page
- A classic experimentation page: one subject rendered in four different mark systems.
- The comparison teaches which mark suits which idea — and it is perfect process evidence.
- Marks are choices, not accidents: name them in your written evidence.
四种画法一页纸
- 经典的实验页：同一个对象用四种笔触系统各画一遍。
- 对比教会你哪种笔触适合哪种想法——而且它是完美的过程证据。
- 笔触是选择，不是偶然：在书面材料里点名它们。
Select all · 所有 subjects where scribble marks shine. · 选择所有涂鸦笔触表现出色的主题。
Scribble suits lively, broken textures — not mirror-smooth metal. · 涂鸦适合生动、破碎的纹理——不适合镜面光滑的金属。
Match the mark to its personality. · 将笔触与其个性匹配。
Each mark carries a mood. · 每种笔触都携带一种情绪。
Stippling is slow. Starting a large drawing in pure stipple the night before a deadline is a classic disaster — test the technique's time cost on a small patch first.
点画很慢。截稿前一晚用纯点画开一张大画是经典灾难——先在小块上测试这种技法的时间成本。
The same sleeping cat four ways: hatching (calm and orderly), stippling (soft and patient), scribble (twitchy, alive), broken dashes (light, sketchy). Same cat, four moods — the mark is the mood.
同一只睡着的猫画四遍：排线（安静有序）、点画（柔软耐心）、乱线（好动鲜活）、断续短划（轻快随意）。同一只猫，四种情绪——笔触就是情绪。
Stippling = tone from dots; scribble = fast living tangles; marks can be additive or subtractive. Build a personal mark vocabulary and choose marks to match ideas.
点画=用点画色调；乱线=快速鲜活的线团；笔触可以是加法或减法。建立个人的笔触词汇，并让笔触匹配想法。
