  1. Texture

  2. What Is Texture? • Texture refers to how the surface of something feels to the touch. • It is perceived through touch & vision.

  3. Actual Texture • Actual Textures occur in real objects that you can actually touch.

  4. Simulated Texture

  5. An imitation of an actual texture using a visual illustration of a real texture • You can see these textures and imagine how they feel, but they would only feel like the surface painted on. • It’s the illusion of a 3D surface.

  6. Invented Texture • The impression of texture, invented by the artist, that it is used in a decorative, rather than realistic way

  7. Glossy v. Matte • Glossy refers to a smooth & shiny surface, like a newly waxed floor. Reflects bright light. • Matte means dull- smooth but not shiny, like the surface of a chalkboard. Reflects soft, dull light.

  8. Smooth v. Rough • smooth-reflects light evenly; ex: plastic, chrome, table top • rough-reflects light unevenly; ex: fur, grass, sand paper

  9. Methods Used by Artists to Add Texture to Their Work: • Decalcomania-a techniqueof creating random texture patterns by applying thick paint to two surfaces, pressing them together, and then pulling apart • Frottage: a method of creating texture by rubbing a crayon over a piece of paper on a rough surface to capture the texture or scraping across a freshly painted canvas that has been placed over a similar surface • Grattage: the technique of scratching into wet paint with a variety of tools to create texture

  10. Collage • artistic composition of materials, such as fabric or paper, pasted over a surface • initiated by Picasso in 1912 when he pasted a section of commercially printed oilcloth to his cubist painting, Still Life with Chair Caning
