Texture What are the types of textures in art? There is actual, simulated, abstract and invented texture… Actual texture: some things feel as they appear, this is called real or actual texture. Some things look like they might be rough but really is smooth on paper. Texture that is created to look this something when its not. Simulated texture: It is the illusion of an actual texture, in other words, the work may be completely smooth to the touch but it will have the appearance of being rough.
Texture: Abstract texture: It is a texture that derived from the appearance of an actual surface but rearranged and/or simplified by the artist to satisfy the demands of the artwork. Invented texture: Invented texture is a way of adding alternative materials to create an interesting texture.
shape Shapes can be geometrical and/or abstract. Abstract shapes can often have physological associations with the viewer on various levels of depth. Shapes are defined by contrast of differing light or colour areas. Shapes exist in nature and we see these high contrast areas defined as lines.
