2. We are going to
Learn about textures
Know different types of textures
See textures in Art Creation
Learn different techniques to work with
textures
Practise using ICT resources
Represent an Artwork using textures
3. TEXTURE
Everything has a texture or a surface.
Texture can be:
Rough
Bumpy
Slick
Scratchy Bee ceiling
Smooth
Silky
Soft
Wool fabric
Prickly
... The list is endless!!
5. Tactile texture
We perceive it by touching an object.
Every material has a different touch, so it is a
different texture.
6. Visual texture
When we represent a tactile texture using
graphic elements, we get a visual texture.
We can create visual textures using different
art procedures: scrapping, stencilling,
printing...
7. Natural textures
They belong to natural elements, like the skin
of an elephant, the cortex of a tree or the
surface of a rose petal.
8. Artificial textures
The surface of any object made by us: steel,
paper, different kinds of fabrics...
9. Textures in Art Creation
Artists use textures in their artworks
10. Textures in Art Creation
They use different types of textures
depending on their style or the period of Art
History they belong to.
Picasso – Three musicians
Münch – The scream Klimt – Tree of life
11. Textures in Art Creation
Sometimes, they want to imitate the reality
A foggy day The sea
A wooden floor
12. Textures in Art Creation
Sometimes, they want to trasmit emotions
and expressivity: strength, softness,
warmness...
13. Textures in Art Creation
And sometimes they want to create things
that don’t exist, or symbolic images
Pollock – Number 8
14. How can we get textures?
Using drawing material and art procedures:
Tempera
Wax crayons
Coloured pencils watercolours
15. How can we get textures?
But also using any type of material
Different kinds
of paper
Beans and legumes
Coloured sand
fabric
17. Painting and drawing
Using dots, lines and shapes changing
materials.
Spattering the painting using a toothbrush
Blowed painting using a straw.
Using the photocopier.
22. Activities: Practising with
textures
2. Transforming Artworks
Choose an artwork and search for
information about its autor and art style.
Transform it using art procedures to create
texture effects: scrapping, collage, painting
with different materials (tempera, wax
crayons...)
The result must be something like this:
