4. Texture by Definition
The perceived surface quality of a work of
art.
It is an element of two-dimensional and
three-dimensional designs and is
distinguished by its perceived visual and
physical properties.
Use of texture, along with other elements
of design, can convey a variety of
messages and emotions.
5. Two Varieties of Texture
Physical texture, also known as actual texture or
tactile texture, are the actual variations upon a
surface.
This can include, but is not limited to, fur, wood grain,
sand, smooth surface of canvas or metal, glass, and
leather.
It differentiates itself from visual texture by having a
physical quality that can be felt by touch.
Specific use of a texture can affect the smoothness
that an artwork conveys. The use of rough surfaces
can be visually active, whilst smooth surfaces can be
visually restful. The use of both can give a sense of
personality to a design, or utilized to create
emphasis, rhythm, contrast, etc.
7. Two Varieties of Texture
Visual texture is the illusion of having
physical texture.
Every material and every support surface has
its own visual texture and needs to be taken
into consideration before creating a
composition.
Photography, drawings and paintings use
visual texture both to portray their subject
matter realistically and with interpretation.
Texture in these media are generally created
by the repetition of shape and line.
9. Effects of Light on Physical
Texture
Light is an important factor for physical
artwork, because it can affect how a
surface is viewed.
Strong lights on a smooth surface can
obscure the readability of a drawing or
photograph, whilst they can create strong
contrasts in a highly textural surface such
as river rocks and sand
