Visual texture

Visual texture depends on the look of something. A zebra exudes visual texture. 

Show students examples of visual and actual textures in two and three dimensions while discussing the following questions Which examples have actual texture Which examples have visual texture What would be the result if visual textures were removed from the examples How would you feel about the piece without its original texture Which examples have both visual and actual textures How do artists use visual and actual textures in their work Can a sculpture have only visual texture Why ... 

Students will design relief sculptures based on previously constructed molecular models, emphasizing interesting negative and positive space, visual movement through shape, and visual texture applied to positive shapes.

Draw preliminary sketches as in Level Two, applying visual texture to the positive shapes in the composition. These textures should reinforce the movement of the positive shapes. 

Some artists, such as Henri Matisse, chose to use bold colors not natural to the subject, distortion, simplification, and visual texture to describe their ideas. Because of the shocking effect of the works of Matisse and the works of other expressive artists of the early twentieth century, the artists were given the name fauves, meaning wild beasts. Others, such as Pablo Picasso, chose to break down their subjects into simple geometric forms, calling their form of abstraction cubism. Still others, such as Salvador Dali and Rene Magritte, chose to draw upon dreams and fantasy to express their views in a style called surrealism. 

Fauvism 1900 to 1920. Some of the artists involved in the fauvist movement were Henri Matisse, Andre Derain, and Raoul Dufy. They used bold colors that were not natural to the subject and made use of visual texture to enrich the painting surface. They painted simplified shapes without realistic shading, and their paintings had flat areas of color. These wild beasts broke the rules and shocked the art world. 

Image analysis, as applied to microorganisms or to inert particles such as crystals [10] consists in a series of steps which are relatively independent of the kind of objects considered (Fig. 1). In this chapter the basics of visualization as applied to microorganisms will be presented first. The general procedure of image treatment illustrated by bioapplications will follow. Finally, quantification of size and physiology, motility and visual texture will be discussed.

Visual texture is the term we use for the technique of breaking up the appearance of a surface while leaving the physical surface smooth and unembossed. 

To overcome these difficulties it is desirable to have a visual texture effect available as a color throughout the polymer. This can be achieved by creating polymer compounds with an inhomogeneous micropattem throughout the polymer. Depending on the translucency of the...

During mastication, the structure breaks down and the sensory perception of the texture reflects such breakdown processes. Various subjective tests for sensory evaluation are used, e.g. manual texture (touching) by a light pressure with forefinger, visual texture, and mouthfeel during manipulation of the sample in the mouth. To relate the rheological characteristics of the product to the above sensory evaluation, experiments must be carried out under various deformation conditions.
