Texture

Darlene DuCharme

Today we began our investigation of Texture. First we discussed the types of texture:
 1. Actual: this may include an actual object or refer to the surface of a work of art.
2. Simulated: this is an artist's rendering of an actual surface.
3. Invented: this is a textural design or pattern derived from the artist's imagination.

The first part of this project is to create a textural image by exploring different and various ways of applying the paint. This includes but is not limited to gluing paper, fabric, etc. to the surface before painting or using stencils and layering to block out areas.The example above is following a complementary color scheme of yellow-green and violet. These sections will later be cut up and pasted into a textural collage.
