Application of Texture Technology in Painting

Texture technique is a technique used to simulate and express the surface texture, texture and details of objects in painting. Through texture techniques, artists can increase the visual appeal, realism and three-dimensional sense of their works.

This technique can be realized by different painting media and methods, such as pencil sketch, oil painting, watercolor and so on.

First, the texture techniques in pencil sketch:

Crosshair: Texture can be represented by cross hair. The direction, length and density of lines can be used to simulate different surface textures, such as wood grain and cloth texture.

Indentations and spots: By changing the pressure of a brush or pencil, you can simulate the unevenness, wrinkles or spots on the surface of an object in painting.

Grinding and Erasing: Use an eraser or grinding tool to create a smooth or rough texture effect. This can be used to express the luster of metal, the texture of stone and so on.

Second, the texture techniques in oil painting:

Rough painting: Through the artist's brush strokes and the use of oil painting pigments, rough and rich surface textures can be created.

Thick coating and texture coating: With thick pigment coating or texture coating, a raised part can be formed on the screen, showing three-dimensional sense and touch.

Knife painting technique: Scraping oil painting with a knife or other tools can create rich textures and surface effects.

Third, the texture techniques in watercolor painting:

Dry brush method: using dry pigments and brush strokes on canvas can create natural textures and textures, especially suitable for depicting plants and trees.

Salt coloring method: Sprinkling salt on wet watercolor will absorb color and leave interesting texture effect on paper.

Crayon resistance method: draw patterns on paper with crayons, and then draw with watercolors. Crayons will resist watercolors and form a unique texture effect.

The application of texture technology can not only enrich the visual effect of the work, but also increase the tactile experience of the viewer, making the painting more expressive and attractive. Artists can choose different texture techniques according to their own needs to create unique and vivid works of art.
