Prud'hon tutorial
I found a tutorial on Prud'hon's hatching technique last night, and plan to try it. If it's appropriate to I'll post the link. One thing that was impressed upon was the importance of the lines being accurate. In other words, don't even start to take your drawing any further until your "first" line is right. Lon, this reminded me of your technique for portrait work. Draw it once and draw it right! Like Steven, I also get lost in front of "on demand" portrait artists. Not only is it fun to watch, but I've found that the artists who do them tend to be fun people! I'm much too introverted, and use too many lines. Now to look up Durer, then I can really draw lots of lines.
