1. Please copy and answer this question in your sketchbook: What are some ways that texture is perceived through the senses? List some examples.

2. The texture of a surface depends on how it reflects light

3. Texture the element of art that refers to how things feel or look as if they might feel, if touched tactile texture: the texture you feel visual texture: the illusion of a three dimensional surface (the texture that you can see but not feel)

4. Rough and Smooth

5. Matte and Shiny

6. Rough textures reflect light unevenly

7. Smooth textures reflect light evenly

8. Matte surfaces reflect a soft dull light

9. Shiny surfaces reflect bright light

11. E.Q. How is texture perceived through the senses? Meaning and Creative Thinking: VAHSAMC.2 Finds and solves problems through open ended inquiry, the consideration of multiple options, weighing consequences, and assessing results. a. Uses sketchbook journal to research and experiment with artistic conventions to communicate ideas. Production: VAHSVAPR.1 Uses formal qualities of art (elements and principles) to create unified composition and communicate meaning. c. Uses thumbnail sketches and visual/verbal notes to plan compositions. d. Discusses and applies concepts, such as activation negative space, visual weight, paths of movement, non-centered focal point, and variety within repetition. VAHSVAPR.2 Understands and applies media, techniques and processes in drawing. a. Creates contour drawings from observation. b. Uses value to model geometric forms with rendering, hatching/cross- hatching. c. Combines contour and value in drawing from direct observation.

12. How is texture perceived through the senses? Objectives: Understand how texture is perceived through the senses Compare and contrast the use of texture in different works of art Reproduce the appearance of texture by changing values Assignment: Create a design on one page in your sketch book. Include several examples of each of the four textures discussed: rough, smooth, matte, shiny.

13. Have fun and be creative Suggested materials: photographs and patterns from magazine photos, fabric, paper scraps, textures from drawing media such as pencil. color pencil, crayon, etc. various papers, plastic, foil, yarn…….You may also use wet media such as paint…create dots, scratch designs into the paint, put the paint on thick….. Put away all materials and clean up your mess when finished.

14. simulated textures imitate real textures such as a laminated wood table top or fabric that is imitation leather (pleather) Invented textures appear as two dimensional patterns created by repetition of lines or shapes such as polka dots or checkered patterns on fabrics
