Stippling is a term used in art referring to a technique used to create texture on a surface by using small dots or points. Similar techniques include pointillism, which refers to creating images through the use of small dots in a specific pattern. Hatching and crosshatching are also techniques used to create texture through the use of lines. Stippling can be achieved using various tools, including pencils, markers, and brushes. Another similar technique is scribbling, which involves creating a textured effect by drawing small, erratic lines. Regardless of the tool or technique used, stippling can be a great way to add visual interest and depth to artwork.
