TEXTURE

Texture refers to the actual or simulated surface quality of an object or artwork. Real texture is the genuine surface feel, while implied texture makes a 2D image appear textured through techniques like brushstrokes. Texture is an important artistic element found in nature, materials like wood, stone and fabric, and is used by artists to add visual interest or convey different feelings through rough or smooth surfaces in both real and implied forms.

Categories of Texture

Real Texture is the actual texture of an
object. Artist may create real texture in art to
give it visual interest or evoke a feeling. A
piece of pottery may have a rough texture so
that it will look like it came from nature or a
smooth texture to make it look like it is
machine made.
Implied Texture is where a two-
dimensional piece of art is made to look like a
certain texture but in fact is just a smooth
piece of paper. Like a drawing of a tree trunk
may look rough but in fact it is just a smooth
piece of paper
