Stipple
A popular method of drawing, engraving or painting, stippling uses dots or repeated short strokes to create an image. In printmaking, dots may be carved out of a surface to which ink will be applied, to produce either a greater or lesser density of ink depending on the printing technique. In engraving, the technique was invented by Giulio Campagnola in about 1510.
