Texture,
another element of art, is
used to describe either the way a
three-dimensional work actually
feels when touched, or the visual
"feel" of a two-dimensional work.
Use of texture, along with other elements of
design, can convey a variety of messages and
emotions.
Texture gives a painting a character.
Artists may show texture in their paintings by using different brush strokes, layering colors, or by putting contrasting colors such as red and green next to each other so the painting shimmers.
I'll kick it up a notch!
How To Make Your Canvases Pop!
I'll teach my art students how to use different heavy and light TEXTURES
in their (abstract collage) artwork.
I'll teach you
how
to skillfully use texture(s)
to create
contrast, stimulating the senses,
to give a
composition both unity and variety.
