Dots’ uses Material texture Dots for shading Dots for colouring Dots to decorate Vanishing point Point of interest
13
Material texture The point to make use of textures is widely used
14
Material texture Do you recognize these textures?
15
Dots for shading If we paint a group of dots, we can make shadows. When the shadow is very dark, it means that the dots are close to eachother.
