Texture

The texture of an element is the first thing we perceive through sight, and is related to the physical and chemical characteristics of the object observed. Also it’s refers to the properties and sensations cause by the external surface of objects received through the tact. Textures are used in the design with an aesthetic and functional function. Specifically, the material and the texture of each object must be adapted to their function. Works of art have a variety of actual textures created by the artist's choice of materials and how they are handled. The actual texture of this oil painting is quite rough and bump.

The artists can achieve many textures at same time in a paint or sculture. For this material handling they can create the illusion of space. __ // Natural texture:// __ The surfaces and bodies of the nature, for example, field of grass, trunk of a tree.  __//Artificial textures//__ ** // : //  The surfaces of objects, made by humans, for example a wall. ** //__Visual texture__//: It's the result of the combination and interplay of colors and tonal values and it’s appreciated by eyesight. Painters used this type of texture to imitate the surface of the object that paints. //__Tactile texture__//:  It’s perceive by tact sense. It’s a Dimensional physical structure of an element, ignoring it's shape or color. Tactile texture is close to a three-dimensional relief.
